And my friend played OB yesterday and said it was really rough around the edges. Hacienda has been consistently good. Pickings are definitely slim with aeration going on, and Tierra being closed.
The courses with more shade, seem to be a little stronger? Don't forget, we haven't had much rain. If you take a look a peoples lawns, (especially zoysia) you can see a lot of drying up. (needs water) If, we get the rain for the next week that they are predicting in the late afternoons, we should see a difference. I trust our professionals, to get us back to good golfing. (I hope I'm right? hehe) Tee times are plentiful all over TV, on Championship courses, even while Tierra is closed
