I played this course for 18 years, every Saturday, Sunday, and a few times during the week. It was $6 to walk during summer. We would park at midnight and wait in line till the gates open, get a ticket and be out before the first tee time, done by 10am. Then the LPGA wanted to play there and upgrades were made, it was easier than before. The greens were tuff before the upgrade, but now it's easy to putt. A fun course, but I miss the old layout.
