The Villages courses are much easyer than the average course I played other places we have lived. The first cut of rough here is very friendly and what would be 18 inch deep true rough other places is non-existent here. Don't get me wrong, I like that. I am getting too old to loose 2 or 3 balls in the rough per round and end up with scores over 100. I'm up for lower scores and enjoying the game. Since we all play the same difficulty its a fair competition.
SO: In my opinion, its easyer here but more fun. With the lack of true rough, slow play is reduced dramaticly.
