Agree.

Was surprised with the other poster saying, "The greens on Hibiscus were very, very good."

Not sure what course he was playing.

Well I must admit I hit 8 out of the 9 greens on Hibiscus, all between 20 to 2 ft. I never saw a plug between my ball and the hole. I did see the old plugs taken from the back of the greens, but never played from there. I always had a nice smooth surface to putt on. I couldn't ask for better conditions. Yes, Tierra, Lopez, Glenview and Palmer are better, but they have the new greens and with more maturity. I can't wait for Cane to get the new grass because the old Bermuda is so grainy. Hibiscus is one of my favorite nine holes because it's so beautiful.
