Default Executive tee boxes horrible
Why are so many tee boxes not level and uncut? Get a hand mower out there. It’s ridiculous

Many have been over seeded recently. So they let them grow in for awhile to get established and thicken. This is done every year.

Thanks but people are taking huge divots out of them already. Can’t believe they need to be that thick. Going to be ripped up soon anyway

Our snowbird friends don't like to tee it up. They like hitting raw iron shots

It’s called over-seeding.

Maybe a solution would be to contact the golfing people to ask that question. In the meantime, if someone doesn't replace divits you could be a Good Samaritan and do it.
Complaining on a social media site will get you no-where.

The snowbird boogeymen strike again. Funny, I never see anybody bring their sand bottle over to the tee box to fill in the craters. Same goes for the ball marks on the greens, every time I'm on a green I find myself repairing several marks.

The good golf school should be a requirement before anyone is allowed to make their first tee time.
