I do have a problem with some of the cup depts. Not all but a few. Over the past few weeks either myself or someone in my foresome had a putt hit the back of the hole and pop out. The reason for this is the cups were not set at the proper dept. All 4 times the top of the cup was 1/2 inch below the putting surface. That is too high. The top of the cup should be 1 to 1 1/2 inches below the putting surface. This way the ball hits the back of the cup which is dirt and falls in. I know this because I use to set cups. I have also seen were cups are too low but that dosen't affect the results. Most likely the people doing this jobs arn't golfers. Someone needs to take the time to talk to these employees and correct this problem.
One other point. We are in the grass growing season. Attention should be paid to the height of the rough. We are seniors and this isn't the US Open. If you can't see the top of your ball in the rough then is't too high. We had this problem last year.

So did you talk to someone that would be able to rectify those issues?
