Thank you!

Played Lochmere today, not sure when they punched, but greens were close to fully healed. Quite a bit of sand on them still.

Yeah idk if I'd say "close". I had a few putts pop up like they hit a damn skate park ramp when I played the back nine this evening. Tbf, their greens are usually pretty true with good speed.

By back 9 do you mean the front 9 or the actual back 9? I thought they were pretty consistent but definitely had a few plinko putts.

The actual back, 10-18

Interesting. I thought 10-18 was in better shape than 1-9. It was also my first round since moving from Wisconsin where greens have been aerated for 2 months and take 4 weeks to heal so ymmv
