Bitching about course conditions on TOTV gets very little accomplished. Those who think its better to play away from The Villages....have at it. Nobody is holding a gun to your head to play here. Some bitch about bad conditions and then another says conditions are just fine...……...who to believe. Take restaurant reviews and course reviews and discard...………..go find out for yourself. I agree with Tim.

Bitchfest? When I see good conditions, I write about it. Unfortunately, that's not very often in TV.

I played Glenview three weeks ago and the greens were in the best condition I have ever played in the Villages. Played Palmer the next day and the greens were fine, but nowhere near as nice Glenview's. I don't know what it is about Glenview, but I can never post a good score on that course? Not a rip on Glenview, more on myself. Somehow the layout does not fit my game, maybe it's all the fairway sand traps? For whatever reason, if I want to have a good chance at posting a low score, I find either Bonifay or Hacienda Hills to be the ticket.

Played Glenview yesterday and the greens are the best I have played in the last couple of weeks.

I'm just trying to understand why some people seem to take it so personal, as if it were their own job performance being criticized...when anyone posts less than a glowing review of a course condition.
For those that constantly whine about people criticizing course conditions, try to remember...no one is forcing you to read or agree with them. If you don't agree, post such...or just move on. After all, if there were no issues/problems with course conditions and everything was always fine...why would this forum even need to exist? |

Quite a bit slower than most middle to upper tier courses elsewhere...but about average for TV courses. Played Belle Glade recently and was disappointed that they are not making a final cut around the green next to the collar...so lots of 'fur strips' on the edges of the actual green. The pro shop said they had others complaining also and that maintenance told them that..."they were trying to grow out the collars." Made absolutely no sense to me, given that they could still instruct the greens mowers to make a last mowing pass around the green...just keep about 6 inches from the existing collar edge and the collar will grow out just fine.

Most of the time the issues with the dead grass near the collars, are because the person doing the mowing...is turning too quickly near the green. That's a 'training' issue. Sometimes this is because of bunkers right next to the green...but often it isn't. Keep in mind, even when the blades are up and not cutting the mower is still putting "pressure" on the green near the collar. One more pass (as long as the mower is going completely off of the green to make their turns)...isn't that big of a deal. Here's a good article that explains the various issues (and some potential solutions)...for the problem. Ring around the collar - Golf Course Industry Quote:
