While a "public option" is a source of much consternation when it comes to the federal government's health-care debate, Richmond, VA area golfers are all benefiting from the Federal Club's new public option. As in opening up to public play.
Independence is at it again with their 2010 annual pass program. I've tried committing all my golf to a single course, and I wound up with a huge case of buyer's remorse. 14 day advance tee times are nice, but $20 cart fees are a bit much in my opinion. The adult pass is $2,500. That's 50 rounds (50 walking rounds) to get yourself to $50/round. Good on you if you get to play once a week like that. Maybe some day...
Back in 1998, I used to ride by what is now Providence Golf Club every day on my way to work, thinking "Man what a waste of land this is. Someone should put a golf course on it." I had no idea that this was the old Pocoshock Golf Course, or that it would be reopened as Providence.
Lester George did a great job on the redesign, getting every bit of his moneys-worth out of the land he was given. While not the longest course in the world, Providence provides enough variety to keep players coming back week after week.
Originally designed by Masters champion Art Wall, Seascape is a stalwart of Outer Banks golf, long the only course on the islands. Increased competition forced Seascape to step up their game a few years ago, and they strengthened a number of nondescript holes, although the course still features a 440 yard par five (around a sharp dogleg and up an extremely steep hill).
I’m staying at the timeshare resort in an owner’s villa, so I am only paying cart fees this week. For $20, it’s difficult to complain.
Do you suppose that since Tiger Woods has declared slow play to be a problem, players will no longer dawdle over putts and agonize when they’re between clubs? No. J.B. Holmes (notoriously slow player, afflicted with a serious case of the twitches) is right. They are playing for a great deal of money, and they’ll take all the time they want. Fine. None of us are playing for that kind of money. There’s just no reason that a round of golf should take more than four hours.
