Normally conditioning is not a major consideration as long as the course is playable. I recently played a course yesterday that normal rates are on the higher side for my area. My round wasn’t nearly as high but still not cheap. Going around the course I was surprised at the areas that just weren’t being maintained any more. There were multiple bunkers on the course that had no sand in them in fact one had mounds of dirt in it that had been there for some time. Greens had a large amount of ball marks and the cups looked to have been beat up. I understand budgets and money has to be spent appropriately but this seemed a little ridiculous to charge what they normally charge for peak rates and have a course in this condition. My point is if your not going to maintain parts of the course fine fill in the bunkers but don’t leave th course in disrepair. Any thoughts?
