Our experience today at Lakewood 3/18 was about as expected for a course that was doing a major punch and sanding of the greens. Communication was great. We were aware last week when we booked so we took it in stride. We received a small bucket and a free beverage as compensation for dealing with the maintenance. That said, there were large punch holes and they were heavily sanded. Was it awesome? No. Was it communicated? Yes. Will it make the course much more enjoyable for the summer? Heck yeah. Can't wait to come back once the greens have healed.
