I live in the "Sandhills" of North Carolina. And the soil is almost like beach sand and drains extremely well. But based on the standing water there apparently are limits. I have been told (but can't verify) that they have never closed our courses because they were too wet. I do know one exception where they had to close course No. 6 because the two lakes on each side of the fairway on the 10th hole flooded and you couldn't reach the 10th green (or the later holes on the back side). dave
