The new greens are doing well healthwise but they are very hard and barely make a ball mark when hit. My playing partner hit five greens near the flag and every one of those shots rolled off the back. Play every shot into the green to roll out 10-15 feet. The pins were pretty close to the green edges so that didn’t help either. I reccommend playing to the center and take your chances with the 40 footer.

The bunkers were in great shape and had plenty of sand so playing into certain bunkers greenside might be a better option than trying to land a 5 or 6 iron near the hole.

Fairways were still dormant and had quite a few sand divots but really didn’t affect play negatively. The tee boxes were sand on most holes.

I’d say the courses in this area need to stick with Winter rates until the Bermuda fairways are growing again.
