McAllister Ranch: Golfing with weeds

I know what you're thinking: Why don't they put a trailer out there and let folks play?

At least that's what guys here in the newsroom said when I asked for golf contacts.

We're talking about the Greg Norman-designed McAllister Ranch course. It has weeds, big ones, growing in the fairways, another odd byproduct of the housing market downturn.

Other guys in the newsroom responded to the trailer suggestion: It's not a trailer kind of a golf course. (I figured there must be some insurance/liabilty issues.)

There are a few archive photos posted for your viewing pleasure (you can see them best if you click on the magnifying glass icon).

Now the golfers out there can figure out what to do with the course....trailers? Weed hazards?

It sure sucks that a great golf course gets built so close to home, then is never finished.
