Default Close the course in bad shape, play the good ones...

We deserve way better.
I would be ashamed to bring a guest on this course.
As of Monday, there were 14 executive and 1 pitch & putt closed. Tuesday we played Mira Mesa - tee boxes were a bit rough but the greens were in good shape. Played Sweetgum yesterday - good shape all around. We're playing Hill Top today - course was in great shape 2 months ago, we'll see about it today. Tomorrow we've got Heron at our targeted request time (mid afternoon) and I would expect it to be pristine after roughly 2 years being closed. Saturday we've got 3 foursomes going out on Sarasota - tee time is within 30 minutes of the requested time. Next week we'll go back to playing Longleaf and Loblolly, the courses across the street from us...

Tee times and good courses are available, if you're willing to travel. Trail fees, at roughly $3 per week, is 60ยข per round, can't find that anywhere else...
