My main complaint about the course is that mowers are still cutting greens at noon. They are also still cutting fairways and tee boxes. I understand no mowing can be done if there has been a frost, but that has not been an issue. This means there is no consistent roll of the fairway or speed on the greens, making play difficult. Also, the crew either ignores the players and continue to mow or stop greenside and stare at you until you hit up, then continue to mow around your ball.
Pin placement is also an issue. Flags directly behind large mounds on the green or tight against a hazard in front of the green is fine if the greens hold, but most of the time the greens are too firm and the ball bounces off the back of the green.
Yardage markers are not accurate and there are no tee markers to walk off for correct yardage on par 3 holes.
