点评:Me and my two normal golfing buddies decided to give Shalimar Pointe a try since the course renovation was completed and the course is back open for business. We last played Shalimar about 2 years ago, prior to closure for the renovation. We decided to play after 12 pm for what we thought were reduced green's fees, to our surprise they were not, since we called and booked directly over the phone versus booking on-line ($84 vs $54 on-line). The course is in okay shape, the fairways were fairly dry, grass was patchy in areas, but a lot less weeds than before the renovation. The greens were in good shape, again a little dry, however; they had just been fertilized so there was a fairly strong odor when you were on or near the green. The tee boxes weren’t great some were very hard to place your tee into the ground. There were some noticeable improvements made, e.g., new cart paths & carts, added a new bathroom, moved at least one tee box, improved some sand traps/hazards & improved the fairways slightly. Our overall consensus impression, the course is in okay condition, but it doesn’t warrant the relatively high green’s fees (direct vs. on-line). It seemed to us that most of the changes were cosmetic in nature, maybe our expectations were too high. There are several other courses in the area that are in better shape and more affordable to play
翻译:自从球场改造完成并且球场重新开放以来,我和我的两个普通高尔夫球友决定尝试一下 Shalimar Pointe。我们上次玩 Shalimar 是在大约两年前,当时正因翻修而关闭。我们决定在中午 12 点之后比赛,因为我们认为果岭费会降低,但令我们惊讶的是,事实并非如此,因为我们直接通过电话预订,而不是在线预订(84 美元 vs 54 美元在线预订)。球场状况还不错,球道相当干燥,草丛稀疏,但比改造前少了很多。果岭的形状很好,但还是有点干。它们刚刚受精,所以当你在果岭上或附近时,会有相当强烈的气味。发球台不是很好,有些很难将您的发球台放入地面。进行了一些显着的改进,例如,新的球车路径和球车、增加了一间新浴室、移动了至少一个发球台、改善了一些沙坑/障碍并略微改善了球道。我们的总体印象是,球场状况良好,但不保证相对较高的果岭费(直接与在线)。在我们看来,大多数变化本质上都是表面性的,也许我们的期望太高了。该地区还有其他几个球场状况更好,而且打球更实惠
