Hadn’t been to Birkdale in quite some time, and it will probably be a while before I go back. Course was not crowded at all on a nearly 80° day, which should’ve been the first clue. Had a coupon and it’s a good thing, as the rack rate of $49 would have been way too much to pay for current conditions. Much of the grass was dormant, as to be expected, but the greens were in really rough shape. Bare patches and uneven patches abound. Low areas of the course are still really wet. Staff was great. Range was mats only. Range balls are a mix of old and new.
