Slow play

Was told when we arrived that a tournament was being held and they were making the turn from the back nine as we were teeing off!!! They were scrambling but we had to wait every shot for 13 holes!!!

Slow play

Three twosomes in a row behind a 5some...none of the twosomes were allowed to golf through!! A lot of slow play....and backing up of golfers behind them. Don't know why fivesomes ...and sixsomes...are allowed to play. If so, they should have the courtesy to have the people behind them play through. Sorry for the rant!!

Great layout. Nice course. Greens a little beat up.

This course has a nice layout and has good variety of terrain. Only negative is several of the greens and tees boxes were in poor condition. 3 of the greens either need to be reseded or needs significant restoration to make playable.

Joke

This course is a fantastic layout, fun to play, fairways and rough in good condition. That’s the only good thing I have for them. Before my story, I should say that the greens are in TERRIBLE CONDITION. They even lack grass, which is the main material you need on a golf course lol. I went with my girlfriend and only paid for me, because she almost doesn’t know how to hit a ball. We had the 9:48 tee time and got to the tee just in time, the Marshall let 3 groups go before us, which was no big deal. We waited about 20 minutes on the first tee and I let my girlfriend hit around in the first fairway to let the groups in front get ahead of us. Marshal came and said we only paid for one, I told him she only hits a couple shots, he said it was ok. Some holes after, the general manager of the course, which was playing in front of us, came to us and said that “she can’t play”. I told him it was fine and I was sorry. I waited about 10 to 15 minutes in every tee for these guys. Funny thing is that I let a twosome play through so we wouldn’t have to wait too much and be calmer, the GM let them play through but not me. 5 hour round when I usually take 2:30. It got boring at a certain point, there was two tees where their group was getting drinks from the cart girl and I was already on the tee, had to wait for them to ask for the drinks, get the drinks, drive to their balls and clear the fairway. Ridiculous. Will be around Alabama for a while but I’m surely not coming back to this course.
