Also they were for the most part very, very slow.
I don't know maybe this is a seasonal thing. Maybe too much rain water...

They're still slow. I played Tierra the other day, and the grass was bristly, a little shaggy, and the greens just didn't roll well. I think with the high heat they've kept the grass long so they don't lose the greens, which is understandable. What bothers me is that we haven't had much rain lately and they're starting to lose the fairways. Tierra had numerous spots in the middle of the fairways where there wasn't any grass, just dirt and dust, or the grass was very sparse. I wouldn't play that course again for awhile. I haven't seen any fairway watering going on except at Palmer. Has anyone else seen them watering fairways?
