To all you newbie Villagers: After you're here a short while you'll learn which championship courses to avoid in the winter and again in the summer. Havana, for example, has ALWAYS had issues in the middle/late winter months. Lopez, for example, has rough that eats your ball up in the late summer. Glenview, for example, is usually always in good condition. Palmer, for example, Cherry Hill gets bad, Riley and Laurel usually stay OK. There are different soils at different courses around TV and they affect the course conditions dramatically. Remember it's winter...you cannot expect summer conditions in the winter. Just learn what to avoid when and you'll be fine.
