I treated my dad to a round at a very nice "championship" public course. $79.00 a round. The course is beautiful, and was in excellent shape.

The only problem I had was that we had the 1st tee time @ 7AM. We over-ran the grounds crew @ the 4th green and waited untill they finished mowing. We then played greens 5-9 "wet", which needless to say has quite the effect on putts.

We were in a hurry to leave, so I didn't get a chance to say anything but I feel like I should e-mail the pro or something. I don't want a refund or anything, but I do want to voice my disappointment.
I've spent most of my life golfing - the rest I've just wasted.

By 7:30 or so, the entire course should be ready for play. I would definitely express my concern. Perhaps they'll invite you out to play again, gratis. That's what I would do.

Do remember, most of the work is done by 7:30, like Eric said. So you can't expect everything to dry quickly.

But yes, an email should be sufficient.

    • Great post and I agree with almost all of it. The discipline piece is real — most golfers want the result without the reps. One thing I'd add: there's a version of discipline that happens away from the range too. The 20 handicapper who texts the next day with a full-speed video — that's not just a practice discipline problem. That's an identity problem. He still sees himself as a 20 handicap who's trying something new. He hasn't made the internal shift to being the golfer who practices with intention. I work on the mental side of the game and what I've found is that the golfers who actually stick with the slow, boring, disciplined practice are the ones who've done some internal work on who they believe they are as a golfer. The ones who quit after two range sessions never changed the story they tell themselves. They're still running the old software. Discipline isn't just "will you do the reps." It's "do you believe you're the type of golfer who does the reps." That belief piece is what separates the ones who text you the next day with a full-speed swing from the ones who actually put in the work.
