    Spring conditions

    Its that time of year. Lets start with Presscot.
    Excellent greens, damp fairways,not wet but normal, Just one fairway really wet.
    Greens are fast for this time of year and better than most we play on during the summer.
    Congrats to the ground crew for getting the course ready.
    Well worth 35.00 for spring golf

    That's awesome Marcos! What time are you playing Prescott Sunday?
    I will be teeing off at 9:53.
    Obviously you're not a golfer.

    Dragonfly today, fairways a mix of wet and dry, greens slow bumpy (aerated), some bunkers full of water, lots of plugged balls today, played front 9 twice as back isn't open yet, no cart girl which is understandable, spring break and all ..

    Falconridge Raceview was in pretty decent shape today. Very surprising, considering it's still winter

    Yeah, Raceview was in pretty good shape, considering. Sand on #8 was full of water (it's hardly in play anyways) and a small patch of snow on the fairway of #7 stopped my drive short but overall pretty darn good. I must say, without any leaves on the trees, some of those holes were a lot less intimidating than I remember them.

    I heard Calabogie was playing the par 3 course and that the main course has holes in the valley still under water. Did you play the little course or the big course?

    Mapleview was pretty much dry (back nine only today) except for a few spots along the way. Greens were cut and bumpy but we did see them rolling the ninth hole as we were having a pop on the deck

    should be open for 18 holes soon and shold be better roll on the greens too.

    course had done some renos last fall and taking shape nicely

    Prescott is in great shape for the time of the season. Greens are nice, fairways though mostly dead, dry. I think there was maybe one spot that was a bit swampy.

    Will be going back there I think.

    Cassleviewis opening this week as well. Got a call from the proshop. Teeing off at 1030 saturday

    Raceview was in great shape today, greens were a little slow but rolled well. Amazing to play March 18th, and in shorts!
    Slice, hook, or straight down the middle. It all looks the same on the score card.

    Prescott was in pretty good shape for this time of the year, and worth the money. Dragonfly not so much, with it being pretty swampy and plinko greens.

    The Prescott greens were faster than Meadows greens at any point in the year. Yes they're that good!

    Calabogie was dry, or at least the front nine was. I don't know about the back 9 since we left to avoid a 7 hour round.

    Edit: this is to reply to solstrum...

    Yeah, actually a buddy of mine played Calabogie and said it was in fairly dry condition but slow. Said Dragonfly Sunday was quicker but much wetter. Calabogie has good slope and sand base so it makes sense that its dry. (15,16,17 are always the wet holes there)

    I drove by Casselview today and the greens looked so good...the rest of the grass will have to catch up but it looked almost like they painted the greens (which wouldnt surprise me...) I would imagine the greens were covered this winter but not 100% sure...

    I suspect the one fairway that was really wet was hole #2?

    Actually it was the par 5 -14 and another hole near on the back 9. Number two was surprisingly dry, well maybe moist LOL.
