I played Calusa last week. Good condition tee to green. Played Seminol Sunday. Tees and green are good. IMO the fairways are cut way too short for hitting irons off them on unless you take divots. I’m a scooper and don’t use hybrids or fairway woods so I need some grass under my ball.

The secret is missing fairways. Plenty of grass off to the side.

Don't think it's a matter of cutting too short. It's more likely that the grass is just worn down from the Winter traffic and dry conditions. Nice fairway conditions are probably two months away.
