Default What is your opinion on the new target greens at the Sarasota Driving Range

3 new target greens in water...........only one is facing the public hitting area and is 150 yards out, but, you are hitting golfballs that fly 10-15% shorter, so actual distance is about 175, green is very snap for that.

the other 2 greens sit sideways to the public hitting area and are 180-200 yards out which makes them 210-230 and are small. Oddly enough, I think purposefully, those other 2 greens face the private hitting area, hmm.

Whats your take on this, yes they are better than nothing, but leave a lot to be desired. People are not having fun hitting at a square footage thats impossible to hit.
