This past week I played Bonifay and Glenview.

Both had sanded greens.

I was impressed by Bonifay's greens. Even with the sand, they had some speed to them. One interesting thing about the day was that my two playing partners thought the place was in terrible shape, too hard and dry.... It was completely the opposite of how I would have assessed. Their complaining did see to be proportional to the number of triple bogeys they made

I must say, I was again disappointed by Glenview. It has always been one of my favorite golf facilities in TV, but more often than not I am underwhelmed by the conditions. I am not saying it was horrible, it is very playable, but is not keeping up with other courses that I have played is TV. Always too wet IMO. If you have a day to play up that end, play Lopez. (I do share this with the correct folks online so they can use as they will).

Anyone been over to OB? Rumor is it is good shape...

How about Tierra?
