Default Palmer and Mallory

Played Palmer Cherry/Laurel again Saturday (4/2) with a friend from MA. Even after all that rain, it was still fast and smooth.

Played Mallory (Virginia/Amelia) yesterday (4/3) for first time in long time. The greens are better than I expected, no Palmer, but no complaints. The only complaint I had were some of the fairways on Amelia are not great. They are not bare like Cane was.... the best I can describe it is they are clumpy, little sprouts of grass, which IMO is worse then no grass as sometimes you cannot get to the back of the ball if it settles between two clumps.

Overall, I found Mallory very playable, and if you struggling with the driver like me you hardly notice the fairways on Amelia because you are never in them The Villages Florida
