Finally got a chance to tee it up with Cencalgolfer33 in over a year of attempting to coordinate our schedules. We tee’d off at about 8:30 AM in sunny and very warm day with no wind at all. Ridge Creek remains in great shape and as RGM2525 stated the fairways are starting to green up. Customer service has always been very good to excellent but it just keeps getting better and better. They agreed to order a logo shirt in my size. I told them to pick the color just wanted a logo shirt to show support.

Greens were rolling at a fast pace. It might be due to the mid to high 80’s temperatures lately but the greens were faster than normal (I thought at least). Greens held well struck approach shots but short chips, even decent one’s would run off. Greens at Ridge Creek are large with a few lumps and bumps in them so it can be easy to 3 putt if you are on the wrong part of the green.

Fairways are on their way back from being dormant. Still plenty brown but have a lot of green showing through. No issues hitting from the fairway. A lot of the nasty 12” + tall rough is cut down right now making a stray ball a 50/50 chance in finding it. Once it all grows back to normal foot plus deep it’s lights out for sure on errant shots.

No issues with the tee boxes. I did notice that the tee markers are now getting narrower and more consistent with other courses. In the past the markers were 50’-75’ apart

Sand traps are ok at best. Better than they were a couple years ago but could still use an overhaul. The tall grass around the edges of the bunkers are cut down to manageable (2-4 inches) height.

POP – Well we were behind two sets of fivesomes…. Once we got around the second group on hole 9 the pace picked up with no to very little waiting.

Ridge Creek is always an enjoyable track and as soon as my shirt comes in I’ll head over and play again while there!
