    have seen quite a few Marshes deals on another website, $70 for weekend mornings, $60 for afternoons, and a bunch of weekday deals as low as $50.

    Anyone get out to the Marshes on the weekend that could update on how the greens bounced back?

    would love to know as well as I am playing there in a couple of weeks.
    I got a fever. And the only prescription is more golf equipment.

    The Marshes should have been and could eventually be a much better place to play golf.

    I played Sunday. The greens were bumpy. Some worse than others. Some slower, some faster. Not a lot of bend. The are all green now. More green on them then there was 3 weeks ago. The marshal said it was their first aeration of the year. Still enjoyed it. Everything is pretty damp up and down the fairways.

    I'm happy paying 60$ with the discount membership. Not much more than that. With the range and a cart its a good deal.

    Although we didn't see the cart girl on the back 9 at all. Got pretty hungry.

    Played on Friday. The green sucked! I had a horrible day putting and although I can't entirely blame it on the greens...they sure as hell didn't help.

    I hope they don't try to charge you full price because it surely isn't worth it (I paid nothing btw) Having said all of that, the rest of the course is in really nice shape.

    Still very bumpy from the aeration. They have only filled in approximately 60% in my estimation. Along with the bumpiness, the speed tends to vary from hole to hole as well. The bright side is that it will have over one week's worth of growth under its belt by the time you play it on Sat.

    Good luck.
