Long before the pandemic the fairways were like playing off dirt. I once was told by an ambassador that THe Villages was the only place where you could get tighter lies from the rough than from the fairways. This started years ago when they stopped over seeding the fairways with winter rye. They stopped it saying that it interfered with the Bermuda grass coming in the spring. Trust me, it had nothing to with that, it was all about money. Lots of courses continue to over seed with no problems. Why should they spend the money when they know regardless of conditions the place will be full?

I predict I will continue to play Harbor Hills, Ocala Golf, Lake Diamond, and others for 1/2 the price of the Villages Championship courses.

I have been living here and playing golf here for 19 years. I have seen prices increase over those years and was never asked how I felt about it. I predict that this will not change in the future. They have more players now than ever and we have the choice of either playing or not playing. The main draw they have is called convenience, as opposed to travel outside to play. In the lst 10 years of Havana they averaged 100,000 rounds per year. There are very few golf courses in this country that have that much play. So how can the conditions be maintained like a private country club?
