yes i would play the greens wont be in tip top shape but you can still have fun playing

Probably not too severe of an aeration.

Check out the Tobacco Road Golf Club near the Pinehurst area. We went years ago and had an absolute blast. It is a freakish layout that yeilded a ton of fun.

Wow, what a course. I just played it from the Ross tees (6500 yds) and it was fun. Now I know what they mean by Donald Ross domed greens. Some of the greens were off, but most were playable, probably 1 or 2 less than the normal stimp. I guess without the aeration, the greens are pretty fast. Fifty dollars for a replay, but decided to relax instead.

I fail to understand why aeration is so bad. Just check your line. The aerated greens that I've seen were never completely ripped up.. Just holes in them - they don't affect my putt any more than a wayward blade of grass does.

Ahh man I hate aeration. I think it really screws with the line and in the end is a waste of greens fee. Can't stand it.
