My only experience with poa annua is it being like a weed. When it contaminates bent grass greens a course usually does all it can to get it the **** out or minimize it. Had no idea there were greens made of the stuff and have played in variety of areas in the country.

You quoted him out of context to make a point that was utter bullshit. It's what you do. It's what you always do. It's why you have the reputation you do. |

Nice. Staley is a beautiful course, but the ****ing greens are ridiculous. Good place for a reception; great clubhouse and bar. Buddy of mine just moved in there. Looking forward to golfing Staley from time to time...

I'm heading to the Quicken Loans National event at Robert Trent Jones golf course at Lake Manassas, here in Northern Virginia to watch the final round in late July-early August. I play at the public sister course next door, Stonewall Golf Club at Lake Manassas. http://www.stonewallgolfclub.com/
It's a beautiful course and there are many views of the RTJ course while you are playing. Their greens are so green and always watered by hand, bunkers look so pristine and perfect with white sand, and rarely see too many members playing. I'll post some course pictures once I return

I hate that first hole. The tee shot just doesn't suit my eye at all. I've hit everything from gap wedge to 3-iron into that green. |

Any recommendations for a course to play in KC/Surrounding Area that won't break the bank on a Saturday morning?
Best I've found so far is Stone Canyon. Anyone played it recently? I heard it was a mess last year but may be under new ownership? |

New management. The banks always owned it. Old management company was run poorly by a someone who's thoughts didn't jive with reality, hand stringing those running the place. don't know anything about the new one other than second hand rumors of what the budget was gonna be(not much better than other)

You might find a deal on Golfnow.com...I'm a member at Liberty Hills, they have a good membership deal....$49.00 a month and you can play at Staley on Tuesdays for a cart fee and other courses too like Drumm Farm during the week.

Anyone played Winterstone off 291 on top the old limestone quarries near sugar creek? I have worked near there looks like pretty nice course and if your playing around 4 pm you get a rumble from underground dynamite detonation blasting out rock face.

I played Liberty Hills long ago in HS. I hear they completely redid greens, fairways bunkers and sand traps. Was working out that was and drovew a bit around it looked ok.

Liberty Hills is in ok shape...the back nine was re-soded with zoysia strips. The greens are the best shape I have ever seen them in. What you heard about the bunkers is false. They suck...need a lot more sand..most are a mix of dirt and sand. Hard to play out of. The worst bunkers I have ever seen.. |

I don't know how they've done since then. The decline in golf hurt them, and Staley poached some of their membership, plus didn't their clubhouse burn down a while back? |
