Played Wednesday, April 15, around 7:00 am, walking from the blue tees. There were several openings for singles when I checked the website on Monday afternoon. Come to find out the reason was there was no back nine play, they were sending early 18-hole golfers off 1 and 10 because of a shotgun start for an outing later in the day. My group of four walkers finished in 4 hours. The range was not open when we started, it opens later on Wednesdays.

The course is really lush right now. Fairways are great and the rough is thick. There were areas of a second cut that were really punitive. Very thick kikuyu grass. The highlight was the greens. Fully healed from aeration, they were deceptively quick. Some tough downhill putts. The lowlight was the sand traps. They should be GUR until they can put some sand in them. I got out of the front right trap on #9 but there was no way to hold the green on the shot. The front left bunker on #17 was marginally better although I was in a low spot of what had recently been mud. The fairway bunker I was in on #16 was like hitting off the cart path.

The lush conditions and nice greens more than made up for the sad bunkers. Recommended.
