Redfish Run and Bonita Pass
Played Bonita last week and Redfish Run today. They are both in pretty terrible condition. I understand that the three courses in that area were all closed last summer for renovation or maintenance. I can't imagine what was done to them, but whatever it was didn't help. If a course is closed for some reason for an extended period of time, it should be pristine when it reopens. Neither of these are anywhere close to pristine. Greens are slow and bumpy and inconsistent from green to green. Some greens have bare spots that look like alligator skin. There are holes and bare spots within five feet of the greens. A few of the tees were completely gone.
I understand that we having a bit of a drought, but there is no reason that these greens and surrounding areas should be like this.
