I played Mangrove yesterday with our regular Wednesday foursome . I was lucky to find a last minute “open tee time” slot for 4 players.
The last time I played Mangrove it was in “pristine” condition, probably one of the best at that time. But something has certainly changed.
The Villages “report card” rates this course C - However , I think that is a little bit unfair.
The greens are in very, very good condition but not perfect. The image I’ve posted is indicative of the general condition of them all . Two or three of them had a very small amount of “damage” mainly around the edges. But again , minimal.
So , I would do a “split” rating and would say that greens deserve a B + rating . They were s-l-o-w but mainly because they needed to be mowed and rolled.
The tee boxes ??? I can’t really tell you what I REALLY think them because this post would certainly be deleted !!
“A picture is worth a thousand words “ ! Take a look and you decide . I would give the tee boxes a BIG F !!!
The rest of the course is full of weeds every (but the greens) and so those parts of the course deserves that Villages rating of C -
