Default Redfish Run

Played Redfish Run yesterday.

WOW 😮 Scratch this one off the list ! It was in really terrible shape !

Tee boxes were not good . Not groomed and full of weeds.

Bare spots all over the place . What wasn’t bare spots, it was weeds !

The greens were horrific. I don’t even know how to describe them other than you could not keep a putt going straight if your life depended on it ! They had been punched a while back but it went beyond that. Maybe the photos will tell the story. Bottom line , these are the worst greens I’ve seen in a while.

I sure hope the course is scheduled to be closed for a complete makeover. It really needs to be done NOW !

Course rating is a D

Dam, another poor grade in the area of Pelican and Cane Garden. Time to hold whoever is responsible for course maintenance in that general area to be held accountable.

I agree …. But you know that they will come up with some kind of BS to justify their ineptitude.

Last year’s El Nino, this year’s early drought, last year’s flooding rains ….

You name it , they’ll come up with excuses ! 😂😂😂

That's what I would do. 🤔😮 It's not my fault. I wasn't here at the time. Global Warming is to blame.

Yes, Redfish Run is scheduled next year for a full renovation. It appears they can only do 5 Executive courses per year. Bonita Pass is getting their course done first. Redfish and Tarpon Boil are both in bad shape. It took longer than expected to finish Pelican and Pimlico. Mother Nature gets a vote.
