    Thank you......this should work fine....especially if members comment on the conditions etc once they play the course.

    Most likely Sunday. Course is soaked as of today so it will need a couple more days. Will keep you posted

    While I agree reading this info is useful, it hasn't gone well in previous years on this site.

    I put zero stock in the course condition reviews. I’ve seen people refer to courses that wouldn’t be in the top 10 in the city referred to as “mint” or in “perfect condition”. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I always look at condition, playability in relation to price. You pay $20 to walk 18 don’t expect much. You pay $150 you should expect something memorable.

    I think anyone expecting good conditions at this time of year is out for a disappointment.

    If the course is open, count it as a bonus and enjoy the day.
    Not fat anymore. Need to get better at golf now!

    I was there today. I was surprised at how good the greens were rolling, considering we're in March. Had two temporary greens though, but was just so nice to just be out there. I didn't find it too wet. 25$ plus Hst is not a bad deal right now, and it showed because it was packed!

    Pineview was super busy
    5 hour round walking and course was really wet
    Lots of plugs/lost balls on the fairways
    Punched greens
    Ok shape for the time of the year but it was great to get out

    Played Dragonfly today. I have to say that the course was in very good shape. There were only a few damp fairways where the ball actually plugged (9 and 18 specifically). Fairways were in good shape and the greens were rolling very well for this time of year. (very smooth and no punch marks from last season). I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely worth the drive for some very good spring golf. For those of you who take carts, only a couple of holes had cart path only, otherwise carts were allowed on fairways.

    It was a good day. Course is quite dry, I didn't see any water in the fairways or low spots and it was starting to green up. Greens had been punched but rolled pretty good for early April.
    I got a fever. And the only prescription is more golf equipment.

    Yep, played yesterday and it was in pretty good shape.

    Pineview was wet on a few holes today but still in pretty good shape considering it's April 4th.

    Played Cedarhill today April 5 2021.......Course wintered very well. Greens were in nice shape and were fairly quick given the time of year. Punch marks were faintly visible from last season but did not affect the putting at all. Fairways were also in nice shape. The lack of rain and bit of wind the last few days has dried up the course nicely. Two courses in two days without any disappointing conditions. I hope other courses are in similar shape.
