Default Course condition

Just wondering what shape Jurassic Park was in. Has anyone played there recently? I haven't played there in over a year.

I didn't know Orange Blossom had a nickname. I thought Jurassic Park was just a set up for a joke.

Most courses are in good shape. They start punching the greens this coming week.

Played OBH last Friday and the course is in very good condition. Greens are too fast for me, and I three putted several times, but I hope they don't screw them up with the upcoming top dressing.

is a necessity for the health of the grass. If they didn't top dress a few times a year people would complain that they're dying.

So you either accept the aeration and top dressing or you end up with greens that are not only brown, but have no grass....your choice.
