Lower your expectations, especially since we are all playing from the right side of the grass. Wish it was better also but since nobody ever listens it's just easier to expect less and be happier..
I've been playing there for over eleven years and it is poor condition. It really looks ragged. I realize that it gets a lot of play, but it does not compare favorably to other courses I play. Played Cane Garden today and the greens are in great shape. The bunkers have been raked. The tees are level and have grass. Same with Glen View and Mallory. Forgot TDS; also in good shape. The last three I have played. I forgot to mention that they water so much that many areas are like playing in a swamp. Something is missing at HH. You should see the last health inspection report that I saw for the restaurant. You probably wouldn't eat there either.
