...and if so, what was the result?

I had a 12:51 tee time on Sunday, and didn't step off the 9th green until 3:58. I had to drive off the course after 13 holes due to darkness. There were NO empty holes, nor were there slow players. No gaps at all. The clubhouse started sticking people in-between tee times.

This is normally a very well-run course but they blew it yesterday. The marshal admitted the clubhouse screwed up and that he couldn't speed anyone up as they were all playing as fast as possible.

I emailed the clubhouse today and registered my complaint. I didn't ask for anything, but am curious as to what they might do. What do you think is appropriate? For me, I'd do a "2 for 1" or something like that, for the next round, along with an apology.

Ha-that is nothing, I play at courses in NYC, 6 hour round a minimum on the weekends. I've played for 6.5 hours with 3 holes to go, and they could care less.

As a follow up, I got a thank you for the email, an apology for their (freely admitted) mistake, and a voucher for a free foursome anytime.

They got a (more) loyal patron.

    • Day 242 4-19 correct hip/chest movement in backswing. Less hip turn more chest turn. Did a bit of wrist arch stuff as well.
    • Day 42 (19 Apr 26) - Spent a bit of time working on maxing torso rotation…hit a few pitches to help reinforce. 
    • Thanks - that was a total surprise…
    • We're glad you've joined!   Welcome!
    • First round at Quail Ridge: 47 + 47 = 94 *Note: It was 25+ mph winds with gust in the 35+ mph. It was also around 58 degrees. I felt like I was out in Oregon. The greens were very firm.  Driver was decent. It didn't cause me an issues.  Irons were the biggest issue. Just low point control was lacking. Mostly on the chunky side. Also, my irons were routinely 20-30 yards shorter than normal. Even on holes with a cross wind, the ball was just dying. We played an extra 9 holes after the first 18, and the wind died down by then. I stepped into a 9 iron, and it came up 15 yards short. I have no clue what is going on. I should not be hitting 9 irons 140 yards when I am hitting my driver 300 to 310 yards.  Warmup didn't give me much confidence. I just kept shanking every other iron shot. I didn't shank an iron during the round. I just felt all out of sorts today. Coordinate felt off.  yea, I have no idea if I am purposely slowing down my swing to feel my downswing piece. Again, I hit a decent 9 iron and lost 15 yards of carry. I hope this is just an off day.
