I have never seen the Championship courses in better condition than they are right now. I play Mallory, Palmer, Glenview & TDS. With minor exceptions, those courses are all in the condition you might expect at a low-mid tier private country club. They're not Augusta National, but they're in better condition than a lot of the courses that were used for Korn-Ferry 1st & 2nd Stage Qualifying the last couple of months.

& at Palmer and Glenview, all the range balls have been replaced with quality Srixon golf balls. Glenview always used "floaters", but the replacement ball isn't a floater.

A logical conclusion might be, the Developer/Owner heard the complaints last year and decided to address some issues. It's not just happenstance, but a welcome positive step.

That’s great news. Here is hoping there won’t be a deep frost in the next month and a half and the current conditions will remain. Unfortunately, the day of amateur hour free golf on Christmas Day will take its annual toll on the conditions. Wish that tradition would be discounted.
