Default Saddlebrook greens are the SAME as described for Hawkes Bay.

Tee boxes are also in terrible shape .

The “El Nino” excuse is a bunch of BS as there are many other executive courses that are in decent shape …. Hill Top , Silver Lake , Amberwood and Oakleigh to name a few …..
Plugged green with holes never properly filled and/or rolled. El Nino irrelevant to these two courses.

Almost one out of four (10 Courses of 42) CLOSED. (24% - do we get a deduction in Ammenity Fees!?)
