This will be short and sweet ….

The majority of the greens were basically like the images posted …. They were “fast”

Rest of the course was just “ok”

My understanding is that the course is due to be closed for a complete do-over . It needs it .

Yes it is on the list for shutting down probably as soon as snow birds go home. With it’s redo and Oakleigh and Walnut Grove being redone this summer as well, all courses north of Saddlebrook and Hawkes Bay will have been rebuilt with the all new Tif Eagle grasses including Lopez, Glenview and Tierra del Sol… not sure about HH.

Villages are moving southward with Bogart and Bacall and I think one of the three west of Cane garden. My guess would be Saddlebrook and Hawkes Bay will be next year.

Truth. But they were gracious enough to give me a refund.

On the bright side, it is being re done after 30 years of play. Like usual some people, including actual golfers, are objecting
