Silence is golden.


I am one who has raised an issue regarding poor course conditions when they surface. Play most of my Exec rounds at Mangrove, Sweetgum and Palmetto. Occasionally venture to Southern Star and Yankee Clipper . Being very cautious due to the COVID virus I have only played 3 times in 7 weeks. Sweetgum and Palmetto are still closed but the greens at Mangrove have improved significantly. Tees on both Mangrove and Southern Star have been terrible but that has never bothered me. It’s the greens, fringe areas around the greens and the traps I’m most critical of. Giving credit where credit is due which I think is what you were driving at, conditioning is much improved for the limited amount of courses I have seen. Playing Sweetgum Tuesday so am interested to see what has been done. Palmetto back in operation on the 18th so I’m a happy guy.
