played Palmer today....best I've ever seen. Entire course is perfect.

Our Friday group played Havana today and enjoyed it very much. Fairways are nice and green and the greens were exceptionally soft and had a nice speed to them.Course is in very good condition.

I have made a reservation to play in TV on Wednesday. However a number of the people I play with have been making tee times for courses outside TV that offer very attractive specials. So far I have been pleased with the fairways, greens ,fees which include breakfast/and/or lunch.

Our group played Nancy Lopez(Ashley Meadows & Torri Pines) Friday. In absolute gorgeous conditions. Greens, T boxes and Fairways were all nice and plush and green. Thumbs up to the crew there.

There is a little cushion of grass even on the executive courses. Spring is here.

Played Tarpon Boil yesterday afternoon and with the exception of the 9th, I was pleasantly surprised with the condition of the greens. It is not Lopez or Palmer, but better than other execs I have played lately.

OB today....... well, if it is not a "rain check" day

PS. I have not commented much on conditions as I have been playing the same courses as others, Palmer, Lopez, OB, Glenview and Havana and I agree with others the conditions are very good and better conditioned than I remember in years past, but that may just be my memory fading.....

Played Lopez on Saturday... Fairways, tee boxes and greens were in fantastic shape.

Played Tierra Del Sol today (Sunday) Most fairways and greens in fair shape. Some were not. Not as good as Palmer, Havana, Lopez but playable.

Played Havana (Hemmingway & Kilimanjaro) wednesday-excellent shape
Played Glenview(Stirrup & Talley Hoe) thursday-excellent shape
Played Palmer(Laurel Valley & Riley Grove) Friday-Outstanding!!
Played Orange Blossom Saturday morning-great shape
Played Hacienda Hills ( Lakes & Oaks) Saturday afternoon-horrible fairways
Played Lopez(Ashley Meadows & Torrey Pines) Today-Outstanding!!

I usually don't get to play the championship courses but my brother was here this week so I played all the above in 5 days.My ratings would be:

#1 Palmer
#2 -Lopez
#3-Glenview
#4-Havana
#5-Orange Blossom
and the only one I won't go back to unless the fairways improve is Hacienda Hills..Too bad to because it is a really nice layout!

I think we're all on the same page as far as our opinion of conditions. Lopez was in just fantastic condition the other day, as was Glenview. I'll be playing Havana this week and am looking forward to it. Played Tierra last week, and it was okay, but not great. Hopefully Hacienda will improve with Spring arriving and the grass coming back in. Orange Blossom is so much better than it was last year - it was really nice to be able to put that course on our request list again.

Ditto Taj - played Lopez this morning (Monday) starting on Torri Pines and the course was in great shape. Greens were good even though the pinsetter was on occasion...laughably sadistic.

I played Hacienda Hills today(Palms to Lakes).The greens were in excellent shape. The Palms fairways are in better shape than the Lakes. The course is in "okay" shape, but much better than I expected. (I wasn't expecting much).

Played Tierra Del Sol today and found it to be in fairly good condition. Not as good as Lopez , Glenview or Orange Blossom but very playable . Greens were extremely slow though.
