Lots of bare spots on the greens (Riley > Cherry). Also greens not rolling smooth at all. Been playing Palmer for 3 years now (Riley always a favorite) and never seen it like this. One fairway on Cherry had tire tracks of dead grass as if some kind of chemical had been spilled from a maintenance vehicle. I checked for a maintenance schedule online and can only find one for aerification. I’ll definitely wait awhile before playing there again.
