Played Prestwick last week and TPC today. Both are in good shape. Seems most courses are a little slow in getting the bermuda in as May seemed a little cooler than normal. So, there are are some thin spots on most courses. Nothing bad just where the transition is not full yet.
Both courses are obvously tought. Both have good greens right now. TPC's were rolling a little faster this weel. TPC has redone thier buckers. Today the sand was wet and thick because of so much rain the last few days. TPC was cart path only and that is a big course to have that situation on.
I like both and both are a big test.
thanks for update herd. will play both for the first time in the next two weeks.
I have not played TPC, but Prestwick is a bear of a golf course.
Thanks for report on 2 very good MB courses.
Rain has been spotty around MB this past week. Both WW and Arrowhead were 90 degrees. Only got a quarter inch of rain the whole week at my place near Long Bay. Other areas were hammered
Golf is just an excuse to drink whiskey and smoke cigars
Too bad concerning the bad weather. Hoping for some sunshine in a near future.

Thanks for reporting @herdman about two courses that are almost impossible not to love!

Herdman great 2 courses to play, Love them both. Kind of courses that if your not on your game it will chew you up and spit you out.

TPC is also in the same family. The bear family. ????
When it is wet, TPC is worst than a bear. Really like the course but wet conditions make it somewhat miserable and even tougher.
Prestwick, if I could only play 1 golf course in MB on a regular basis, it would be Prestwick. Love the layout. It just suits my eye. Plus, I have had a couple of my best rounds in MB on Prestwick.

When I recently played TPC is was cart path only. Not ideal, big ball park.

Rick i agree with TPC is a bear when wet. I played Prestwick in wet and dry conditions, you didnt see any real difference with the course.
