Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I can never understand why people who are unhappy with various parts of The Villages who express their opinion are maligned so. I wouldn't characterize the golf courses as cow pastures, but anyone who's played a lot of golf on decent courses has to admit the The Villages courses tend to be lacking. The conditions vary drastically. Generally speaking I'd classify them as just "okay", nothing to write home about. I've played golf for about 30 years and am an 11 handicap. I've heard the refrain "if you dont like it here you can leave' many times, and I just don't get why people take criticism of The Villages so personally. I've always advocated passing your complaints on to the right person, and maybe things will get improved. I think MikeOD is right, what we have as far as golf is probably as good as its going to get; but that doens't make the courses "good". I'd give our courses on average a C minus.
