Perhaps we can all agree that The Villages could do better when it comes to maintaining the golf courses. Especially the championship courses could be maintained better because we pay a “premium” to play. Frankly due to health and age I do not “pay to play” as much as some but I’ve noticed continued price increases and mediocre maintenance the last fourteen years. Suffice to say we could do better. I would especially like to see better time frames and less dollars to play nine holes at the championship courses. The fact that most are 27 holes tracks, it would seem fairly easy to attract and accommodate more golfers who would play nine instead of eighteen holes. BTW, the USGA is encouraging nine hole play which accommodates seniors and leaves time for other activities. Just a thought.
