We played Hacienda Hills yesterday and found many of the greens to have major problems. The edges seem to have a fungus problem (I'm guessing here), with dead grass and a white colored substance where the grass should be. Plus there was a lot of weed growth within the greens, which I believe is goose grass. Putting was an adventure, as you really couldn't read breaks unless you were obviously on the side of a fall line, and most putts could be counted on to bounce at least a few times. We are going back to Mallory on Friday, as it was in pretty good condition last week.
