Remember the deep roughs everyone was whining about?????.......they are gone.
Greens are still very good.
Hated to see the roughs disappear and the fairways so thin.

I always said Tierra Del Sol has the best greens in the Villages, but after playing Southern Oaks I can no longer say that. Besides the quality of the greens, there was nothing else I found to be anything special about SO. It’s not a bad course, but it’s low on my play list compared to just about every other Championship course in the Villages. It’s definitely not worthy of having the highest green fees of any Championship course. I do very much like that as an 18 hole course there are straight t times throughout the day. I like t times between 9:30 and noon, which aren’t available at the 27 hole courses. Also, as a 18 hole track you can play 18 after 2:00 for the price of 9 instead of having to wait until the PM wave finishes making the turn, so it’s got that going for it.
