      @@whois_dev9314 mid afternoon it can get busy. However, being that it’s free, I may just go play 7,8,9 if it’s open or just hole 9. Whatever is open. Using common courtesy not to slow anyone down in any way, since they were there first. If they were to catch up, I just skip a hole to get out of their way, go check hole 1, hit up the practice greens, practice bunker, or hit the range. In other words, you get in where you fit in. You have to have etiquette out there. Being kind and patient is a requirement!
      All that said, I usually go in the mornings and almost never have a problem.

Also, used to get coffee or chicken broth for .35¢ out of the vending machine on cold mornings. Dum-Dums is a not so hidden gem! Greens are better than a lot of courses out there. I’ve driven every hole here except #2. I may have to go back to complete the challenge! Did I mention how nice the greens are ☑️ 😆 Looks like you enjoyed the course. I hope you took advantage of the opportunity and played another round! Nice putts btw, I’ll have to check out those lab putters.

      This course basically has a trust fund supporting it. The "Buhl Farm Trust" gives $600k each year........ You can search their public non-profit filings.
      Most of the courses shown on the "Worst" series don't come anywhere near $600k in TOTAL revenue and this course gets donations, pro shop/driver revenue and possibly city/county funds on top of that.........
      Most of those "Worst" courses are locals who took over some failed HOA course and are now in debt and still need to spend something around $1,000,000 per year maintaining a full 18 hole course.......
      This is a course that may be "free" but it still brings in WAY more money than every course shown on the "Worst" series......
      That course in Arizona he did was $15....... That course would have to average 100 paying customers per day for a full 365 days just to bring in the $600k this course gets in free money......
      Yes ........ All courses can be much nicer if they are given almost an entire operating yearly budget in donations........
      It's a 9 hole course that is open 6 months per year and gets $600k in donations..........
