This thread started about the condition of Tarpon Boil. Suddenly it became a thread about the condition of the hole, and how the damage around them happens. If a lazy golfer does a putter in ball out move, that damages the hole. If someone removes their ball with a suction cup with the flag out, it does no damage.
That said, I took my family to play Tarpon Boil on Monday July 15th. The course condition then was decent, not what the OPs pictures show. The patchwork on the green looks like number 7, and wasn't like that two weeks ago. Must have been major maintenance neglect in the last two weeks.
