This spot felt like a burgeoning hidden gem before COVID, but its fall off is not surprising. I would encourage folks to play anywhere else but here until things actually change for the better here. The concept of building a covered range with Trackman while you’re unable to maintain the golf course at any level of acceptable will never make sense to me. This type of management can not be encouraged.
