Southern Oaks
 
Very good condition today.

Grass everywhere...............greens, fairways, roughs, tee boxes.

Not busy at all.

Less than 3 hour round for the two of us.

Large slowdown on the interstate this morning, so it wasn't as noisy as usual. :loco::loco::loco:

Do the fairways still run like you're on the interstate?

Impacted greatly by moisture..............the whole course appears to be watered nicely.

Seems to be quite a bit more grass on fairways and definitely thicker greens.

And remains totally over priced.

Get what you pay for? Havana = lots of bare and thin spots on greens for $5 less. Given the choice, I'll take grass on the greens for a few bucks more.

You don't want to pay $70, to play a green airport, with flags stuck in the ground?

Most courses include a cart as part of the greens fees. Adding a cart fee to these overpriced greens fees is just a ripoff, posted or not.
