Yes, I know, it's not Briarcrest anymore. I have been a member for awhile. Got away for a couple of years and came back recently. My frustration lies in the pace of play. Now that muni has closed and they moved the city course to Briarcrest, the pace of play has almost become unbearable. On TUESDAY, it was so crowded, I just ended up playing the back nine first and then coming back around. This was due to multiple 5somes ahead of me. I tried to play through but at one point, I saw that there were literally 3 fivesomes on the same damn hole. One on the tee, one in the fairway and one on the green. The marshal does absolutely nothing to help with this and they have no one watching tee times. On Friday morning, I had a 7:50am tee time. I knew that there was a fivesome behind me, so I made sure to be at the tee waiting at 7:49am. However, this group of old codgers decide to start crowding around the tee and two of them actually had the nerve to go stand on the senior tee box while I am teeing off from the whites. Luckily, I can hit fairly well and just hit over them. Just couldn't believe that they were that inconsiderate.
I have been thinking of just canceling my membership and heading over to either campus course or Pecan Lakes. Each are about the same price. But I worry that campus would be just as crowded and Pecan Lakes is a 30 minute drive.
Anyone else dealing with this right now? Have you spoken to the club to see if there is anything that can be done?
