Default My final word on 'free" Christmas golf:

'Twas the day after Christmas
And all through the course
Not a divot was sanded
They showed no remorse

The bunkers had footprints
Right next to the rakes
Please use them you fools
That's all that it takes

And then I approached
What looked like a green
With ballmarks and scuff marks
Like I've never seen

The Morse's gave them
A day of free play
Too bad the destruction
Has ended this way

Although last year not many golfers took advantage of the freebies because it was so cold.

I love when there is always someone bitching about something, no matter what, it’s not always about you. One day a year that grandparents get to show their family The Villages, share a round of golf with them, and not hurting their pocketbook. The divots will get sanded in this week, the ball marks will be raised up ( I always fix 2 or 3 to my 1) If most of us did that, we could help in letting the greens repair faster. Try chilling out, stop trying to undo America’s Friendliest Town. We have enough Negative Nellies here already, be part of the solution.. Enjoy what little time we all have here and on special times like this, smile a say....”looks like that family is having fun. “. Have a healthy 2022

I'm continually amazed at the number of people here in TV that are miserable but choose to stay. Oops wrong thread or is it ?
