Greens and tee boxes nearly perfect and a decent amount of grass around the greens to have a chance at a nice chip !
Overall, I would rate this one at about an 8 out of 10 …..
Took a shot of a couple of the greens …. They are all in pretty much the same shape .

Yes, Longleaf is better than most Executive courses although a few of the greens including the putting green are showing signs of deterioration.
I can’t figure out the logic behind placing the pin in the deteriorated part of the green when other areas of the green are in better condition. Example is hole #4. The center of the green is worn down, but both the upper and lower parts of the green are fine. I see this quite a bit on both Executive and Championship courses. Just because today is pin placement 2 doesn’t mean you have to put the hole in the worn part of the green. Management needs to teach common sense to the maintenance crews.
