Shoots in the 70s

I played this course with a buddie of mine last Sunday and I have to say that this was the worst experience I have ever had at a golf course. This all started when we got down to the pro shop and were checking in with the starter. We had a tee time for 7:30am and were on time. The starter looked like some homeless bum and had the worst attitude I have ever seen at a golf course. We saw that there were about 4 carts on the first tee and it was already 10 minutes past our tee time becasue the starter told us we were up after a group that was on the tee box. The unfortunate thing is that the group on the tee box was a group of 5 and I know they didn't have a tee time becasue the starter made sure I knew they were members. Now I have been golfing for about 25 years and my parents have been members at a very nice course for about 40 years which is totally private. This ranger had the nerve to let this group of five tee off before me and my buddie which was a group of 2. In front of this group of 5 was a group of 3. We asked the starter several times if we could start on the back or possibly tee off before this group of 5 but all he could say was that they were members and they haven't put the flags out on the back nine yet and then walked off. I really wanted to slap this guy that looked like a bum. Anyway, we ended up being stuck behind this group of 5 the entire day and we ended up having a 5 hour round in 98 degree weather. What I am having a hard time understanding is how the ranger doesn't have enough sense to let us go ahead of the group of 5 or the group of 5 letting us play through. Since this is a back woods golf course I guess it make sense. Why have any type of golf etiquette at all. The members drove up to every green even though there were stakes clearly marked that said no carts beyond this point and on top of that they did not fix any ball marks on the greens and I witnessed a member slap his putter into the green after missing a put on hole 18. The really sad part is that the course is actually pretty nice. I mean the greens were like sponges and you were litterally sinking into every green and leaving 1 inch foot impressions but the lay out was decent. What a waist of a nice course. I will never go to this place again nor would I recommend any respectable golfer waist their time or money.

I would not recommend this to anyone... First of all, the cost is outrageous. $25 dollars for a weekday afternoon. The fairways are a mess and have terrible grass. The greens that they claim to be in great condition only look good because they water them to death, making them very slow and even squishy. There is no room for error on drives as any drive fairly offline will end up across the street because of the lack of area. Casselberry, Mayfair, Wekiva Springs would all be better and cheaper alternatives to this crap course
