Played Alamanda today 2/20, there were one or two tee boxes not in great shape but overall very, very good. One of the guys in our group is an ambassadore at another course and he thought the greens were as good as any he has played in a long while, and I agree.

They all want to drive to all these off campus courses (minimum time spent to do this 6hrs. +/-); pay the fuel and wear/tear on their vehicles, probably eat a fattening hamburger/fries that probably cost $.50 to make, use a course cart that sucks and has no protection from the elements - all for the belief that a better course will help their game. I played Lopez Ashley/Torii today; we made the turn and OMG! the greens on Torii had been sanded; decisions, decisions - do I let this ruin the game I had going or focus on finishing my game? I shot a 74. Would you people like any cheese with all the whining you're doing about course conditions?

Winter growing season is no excuse. I have played many courses in the winter from SC to Fl, and all were in better shape than our courses.

Kcraz, must disagree with many of your assumptions. But first this is not about ambassadors, god bless them. It is however your feelings toward those of us who do complain about course conditions. We are not hackers, some of us are the best in the Villages. But that should not make any difference. A scratch and a 20 are playing under the same bad conditions,both have eyes to see the lack of grass etc,etc. I take it kind of personal when without knowing me you assume I'm and others are spoiled brats because we are looking for better conditions. Just the opposite, we re trying to get you better conditions. A question for you. Would you travel 45 minutes to play these courses? Be honest. It's all about convevience plain and simple, and they know it.
