Default Building Pitch and Putts instead of Executive courses

[QUOTE=natjos;2293940]Well I have finally experienced the difficulty getting a Tee time that others have complained about. It has everything to do with the golfers in all of the new developments coming north because of the lack of courses in the south. I have been here for 10 years and have never been constantly shut out of getting a time.

The buildings of Pitch and Putts instead of Executive courses needs to stop. When you look for an open tee time Richmond, Marshview, Mickeylee are ALWAYS OPEN. Other courses well north of 466 are also occasionally open. The developer needs to convert southern Pitch and Putts to executive courses.

Also beware of the Disc Golf conversion. Much cheaper to maintain cans than greens. Downside will be the carpal tunnel that players develop. Grandkids need to stop being greedy
