Lightbulb Talent

I believe they do not have the talent to support the courses and this is witnessed by the number of complaints. If they had people in charge to oversee the courses with management and technical experience these problems should not exist. I don't profess to be real knowledgable in course maintenance but it is logical to believe that if there is high wind, dry greens,etc. the holes should be changed at least every day to prevent the grass around them being killed or harmed.
Again, it falls back on 1. Good course maintenance, 2. Good communications with players 3. funding to keep the course in good condition. Since The Villages use golf as a significant reason to buy then it is sort of lacking in sincerity to allow the main draw to become an issue with residents/players.
Since a private company is responsible for golf activities I would hope the
developer and the other internal organizations are coming down on the Golf Mgt Co. to ensure they keep up acceptable standards.
