Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia's blog is back! We are coming up on the Holidays... though it's tough to get into the holiday spirit with weather in the 70's, but I think the golfer in me will survive. ;-)
The golf course is in fantastic shape after the best overseed we have ever had. Today the greens are running 10.5 on the stimp meter and they are smooth! With rates staying at $89 until December 20th, there is no better time to play "The Best in the West" than now. The Golf Channel Amateur tour knows all about that, as they will be competing here this Saturday (12/08).
The Wednesday night specials at the Verde Grill are becoming very popular. We look forward to hosting you for Half of an Herb Roasted Chicken, 1/2 rack of ribs and tri tip combo, and Country style bacon wrapped meatloaf. All of these specials are tasty and inexpensive, which means they are popular - so be sure to make your reservations as soon as possible.
Until next time, we hope to see everyone out here real soon and have a Happy Holiday season!

We make a tee time on Memorial Day for 6:40am. We were excited to play a nice course. When we showed up at the course, we were told they were having some problems with the greens on the front. They had a fungus and the greens were spotty in areas; however, they putted true. He went on to say the green on the back nine were in good condition. Unfortunately, neither of these statements was true.
When we started playing the course, the greens on the front had large spots of completely dead grass. Where the grass was not dead, they let the green grow extremely long and shaggy. When you putted the ball, it would go fast on the dead grass and come to almost dead stop on the long grass. It was terrible. But no fear, the man at the counter told us the greens on the back nine were in great shape.
When started the back nine, yes the greens did not have the fungus areas of the front nine but were allowed to grow for a multiple days. It had just rained the day before so green were so long I could have putted better on my bedspread. It was a complete disappointment.
After completing the round, we went back into the club house to complain. The person at the counter stuck to his story that the greens were not that bad on the back nine. I told them I don't think they had played them today because they were in terrible shape (All to no avail). I feel like I paid $50 to go to the driving range. The greens were so long that even chipping wasn’t of any practice.
At least when a course aerates the greens they warn you before hand when you are making the reservations and you can decide if you want to play the course of not. In this case, they did not warn us and the shape of the greens was worse than any aerated green I had ever played on. The management should be ashamed of themselves. I think it will be a long time before I play this course again.
