It will take all of spring and summer to try and get things ready for the next season migrating hoards. When autumn comes and things go dormant and the first arrivals begin to swell the ranks of golfers, the courses that have mostly just recovered, will again be under duress and unable to fill in bare patches. The complaint cycle will be complete for another year.

I disagree. We played that course and Redfish 2 weeks ago. The greens were the worst I've seen...anywhere. More bare spots than grass.
It's not from too much wear and tear. It's beyond that, something has infected those greens and they need redone.
The starter even told us "don't try to putt, just take 2 strokes and move on".
That said, I played Palmetto last week and the greens were very good and it gets just as much use.
Bottom line, they need to fix those greens.
