The only suggestion I could make is please try and cut the holes in places that are less than two degrees of slope and less than 3 degrees of overall downhill slope as per the USGA recommended guidelines. I have a slope meter and oftentimes the holes are cut in places with more than three degrees of slope at the hole and over 6 degrees of total slope at the downhill which is typically reserved for major championships on the PGA tour just to put things into perspective. A little focus/education on this topic will go a long way in overall playability and will also improve pace of play. I don't think this is intentional I just don't believe the person(s) cutting the holes knows any better so a little training may go a long way. The above is just friendly advice that can be fixed easily to improve the overall quality of experience on the course regarding the correct way to cut a golf hole as I said originally the course is really playing great and a great value overall is to be had at Plantation Bay! Here is the ruling/suggestion from the USGA (again many locations I tracked during my round yesterday where over 3 degrees (almost double the suggested slope at hole) on green speeds of about a 9.5/10 if I had to guess. The USGA Course Rating System Guide says, "When a downhill roll on the Stimpmeter is 2 times greater in length than uphill, it is considered moderately sloped. When a downhill roll on the Stimpmeter is 3 times greater in length than uphill, it is considered steeply sloped."14 Over the years, the Green Section has suggested: The slope of a major portion of a putting green should usually not be greater than 3 percent (1.7 degrees), although some areas may exceed this for special reasons, such as difficult terrain or dramatic architectural effect.1s Based on current information, any slope 3% (1.7 degrees) or greater on a 10' Stimpmeter reading is too steep for hole use.

But the course has been back open for a few years and there are fairways that are just plain dirt. The green are ok, but are very slow.... I assume to keep them so get don't burn out. In comparison to Palm Harbor that the city took over and re-opened... I had thought the city of Flagler Beach was doing the same with this course but it is in desperate need of a complete grass and irrigation renovation. It is a shame, and I always come back because it would be a really nice 9 hole course (which we do not have any other 9 hole courses around) if they just would make the fairways more playable.

People will honk as you are teeing off and it really takes away from the experience. The course is not well maintained at all. Dead grass all over the place and greens are almost non existent.

Bad flow of people as we were all bunched up. Waiting for the people in front as well as people waiting for me. All this and its also extremely expensive.
