Out for back to back rounds on my home course Monday afternoon 10/14 and this morning 10/15 with both POP rounds around 4 hrs 35 minutes under cooler foggy conditions this morning and beautiful sunny conditions yesterday afternoon with very little wind to speak of. Very friendly staff both days. I had not been out to Rustic for about 4 months. Back 9 start both days The course is just thriving. Full tee sheets and very nice conditions for mid October!! The fairways are in some of the best shape I have ever seen them. Almost to lush? Very little roll out with absolutely perfect lies. Just a pleasure to compress. Rated 9/10 The greenside rough is just so beautiful here. Cut to a thicker level, uniform and in pga tour shape. Rated 9.5/10. Fairway rough is in decent to good shape. Rated 7.5/10 Greens are in great shape coming out of aerification around a month ago. Rolling pure and holding irons like darts. We felt the greens on the back were a little firmer than the front. Can't rate the tees on the front nine as they are in full maintenance completely sanded. Some of the tees on the back have minor patches of sand and maintenance going on. When the sand settles in and they are watered they will be in great shape. Was only in one bunker on hole 7 during my second round and it had a firm base but easy to splash out of. Rustic is no longer a bump and run links course! It's very lush in the fairways and currently plays longer than the stated yardage . Its softer fringes must be negotiated with the proper touch around the greens. Just love the staff, layout, challenge, scenery and fun factor here. Looking forward to some upcoming rounds here.
