This will be very subjective to one's experience(s), but could be fun. I played Jacaranda to Allamanda yesterday (only 4 holes on Allamanda due to rain )

My rating:
1 - being I would go in and ask for my money back
5 - Would not come back unless I had no choices.
10 - being a PGA Tour championship course played the week a tournament in town.

Most of my rating is about the greens. I am not too picky about fairways as long as whatever grass is there is short.

IMO Cane was a 7, which is acceptable to me this winter as I do believe weather matters and am providing some slack.

Are the greens pristine? No, and a few pin placements were in the worst conditioned part of the green. The placer could have been better by moving 6-8 feet in either direction without changing the characteristics of the hole.

Did I miss a putt because the greens? No and I missed plenty

I will go back there without issue.
