Help keep Greens rolling
I understand that with weather uncertain, green speed and conditions will vary a little. It would be nice if we could get some consistancy within a location.....
...rolling of the greens more often (perferably twice a week) ...cut practice greens at same level and speed as course greens, and all 3 nines at same speed ...players to repair ball marks...theirs and 3 others Green speed and smoothness for putting is the #1 condition demand of any golf course. |

Course conditions
Don't hold your breath. Today I played swamp golf, thanks to multimodal irrigation system spilling onto most of the cart paths. Many of the fairways on Killdeer/Osprey should have been cart path-only. They weren't and they were getting gouged. On a day like today, I didn't wonder about green speed. I wondered if intelligent life exists in Villages Golf Management.

This is supposed to be about the greens.

Repairing ball marks on the green is good exercise.

Yes it is
I do my best to repair mine and couple more while waiting on others to putt or chip up.
The other day I played, repaired my mark and started looking for others. One of the guys we were paired with said “ you landed way over here, play ready golf”. I started laughing because he was in the fringe a long way from the pin and his partner was in a fairway bunker. Btw, neither of them fixed a ball mark. |

I hope your response was "Yes, way over there, inside both of you". They may be the same guys I played with several weeks ago that would be 30-50 yards behind my drive, but would wait for me to hit my second shot first because "I was away" |
