Nice course, friendly staff in the clubhouse and the golf pro was wonderful, but the course…read moreMarshall was less than polite. Maybe he should have watched us play, rather than speak uninformed.
He did not quite yell at us, but he was less than polite, but he did say he wanted us to have a good experience. After we took too long on the 1st hole he asked us to keep pace and allow folks to play through. And we were too slow.
But here is my gripe with the Marshall. From then on, we only ever took more than 1 swing more than par for the hole. And almost never took time to put. (I.e., on a par 4 hole, we took only 4 or 5 swings).
Often we picked up the ball and moved down the course. On par 5s, we would go past the black/white post, on a par four to just short of the green to try our hand at chipping onto the green.
On the 4th, a par 3, we Cleared the green, but the foursome behind us stood around starring at scenery. How long are we supposed to wait for them to play through, a few minutes, later we went on to #5 while the took pics of the mountain. Their bad, our ours?
I think we were much more than courteous to those stuck behind us, and we were taking more than our share of the blame. We did not get caught again until hole 7.
After which the Marshall appeared again and asked us to allow players to play through, said we were playing too slow, and should hop over to #17, which we were already doing.
