I thought I had seen some unacceptable condition executive courses this year. However last Saturday we played Heron. The shame of shames.
T boxes little more than than dirt/sand patches. When I say no grass there was none.
Think of the worst greens you have seen in TV....Heron's wins hands down.
I do not buy into the draught offering as many other courses with responsible maintenance show stress, not neglect.
I have also heard the tale that because Pelican and Heron get so much more wild life it creates a problem.
These two courses show what insufficient maintenance begets. And it also demonstrates the level of neglect the majority of players are content to put up with.
I have said my piece to the management. I have also scratched those two courses from any play list.
