We all know there are water restrictions, but it is not entirely clear why some courses are consistently in better shape, have more water to put on, than other courses; Palmer, Lopez, and Havana being chief examples. I watched them water Havana and Palmer almost every day a couple months ago, while Mallory was getting almost no water.
It has to do with water allocation.
