Played on 10/03 first time in many years on the South. Not since they lost of their trees. The fairways are in much better condition due to the tree loss, but it sure has had a negative impact on the character of this great ole track. All fairways on front nine are now easy targets, defense is only found in the length of the holes and tee boxes you play from. White tees were at about 6700 yards and that was plenty for us older guys. If you drive the ball like us, about 220-240 these are the boxes to play from. If you are one of those that think your 240 yard drive is really 270+ you will be in for a long difficult day playing from the blue tees (7000+yards). There are (5) par fives on the track, and most should be easy par or birdie opportunity. Only number 8 is hard to hit in regulation, requiring 3 very well struck and directed shots. Greens are fair, not real large, and roll medium, play attention on how they roll on the first couple of greens and you will get the info necessary to figure out the predominant tendency; break and speed; for all the greens on the South course. Price is okay, but you must play early or expect to be on the course more than 5 hours after you tee off. An older layout with moderate fairways, small greens, and some remaining trees to avoid. A real nice mix of holes, all par threes play differently and require wise club selection.
