I guess the question on everyone's mind this week has nothing to do with golf. It has to do with a certain quarterback's aching ankle. Will the Patriots go 19-0? Will the Giants pull off the biggest David vs. Goliath triumph in recent memory? We will find out on Sunday.
We have a ton of people in town for not only the Super Bowl, but also the FBR open. There will be a lot of people looking for things to do, hopefully one of the things they will look to do is play golf. Let me tell you, there is no better place to play than at "The Best in the West," Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia. The greens are rolling at about an 11 on the stimp meter and with the recent rain we have had, the fairways and roughs are lush. There aren't many tee times left this week, but if you are looking for a steal, check out our $54 Super Bowl Sunday special. It is a definite touchdown!
For you romantics, we are having a special Valentines Dinner the night of the 14th. We will be serving a special three course dinner beginning at 5pm that evening. Reservations will go quick, so call the Verde Grill today to reserve your special evening.
I hope to see all you football fans out here real soon, enjoy the big game and keep 'em in the Fairways.

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.
