While that sucks, I've got about a month left to play before the courses around here start aerating their greens and the holes will stay there until spring as a result. It makes putting a haphazard thing since you could have a perfect line and the ball will jump out at the last second.

I've never played a temp green, but like others I'd probably go with the automatic 2 putt.
I have played on just a couple of courses that had maybe one or two temp greens. I understood the reasons why, but they didn't tell us when we booked the tee times or when we started. As long as there are not more than 1 or 2, I will understand, but TELL US.

I also booked a 3 day golf trip and wasn't told that they were aerating their greens. I was really p*ssed!!! It was a nice resort with great amenities, but SERIOUSLY!!!. It didn't completely ruin the trip, but we will never go back there again.

I haven't played on temp greens, but I have played at a course where all par-4's and 5's have two greens - I guess alternating them keep the greens in pretty good condition year round. It just sucks that I always hit the wrong green somehow....

Yeah it's a bit weird. I remember on one of the holes where there was a semi-blind approach shot with a tree in between. I saw the edge of the green and fired away, only to have landed on the "inactive" green...

9th hole has one right now. "Green" is in middle of fairway on a par 3 hole about 80 yards out. I hate it.

Quick question about posting scores on courses with temp greens- yesterday I played a course that had 3 of them. I really haven't played many times with multiple temp greens. So I am not sure I follow how I should post these 3 holes. Below are the holes, handicap, and score I shot yesterday. My course handicap would have been an 11. Is anyone aware of how these should go in? Any input at all is greatly appreciated.

4th hole. Par 5. 9th handicap. Birdie.

8th hole. Par 4. 11th handicap. Par.

15th hole. Par 3. 8th handicap. Par.

Is it accurate that since these three holes were not played under the rules of golf, I have to post Par with an adjustment of 1 for all 3 holes since they were "stroke" holes? Do I post all three as bogey???

I really have no clue. I think we can't post scores in this area until April anyway.

I don't know about your area, but many areas don't allow posting scores in the winter (unless you play somewhere like Florida or Arizona on vacation).
