Overall , the course is very dry and we can blame mother nature for that as the ponds on the course used for irrigation are already very low.

Anyhow, very nice layout but the course earns a C rating….
Not to change subject, but where did the water go? Courses were closed for weeks 4-5 months ago due to flooding. Pond at Hacienda is almost bone dry.

In meantime people complaining about fees going up while courses deteriorate. Can't win.
