Since "firm & fast" is the en vogue topic of the week (heck, of the last few years I guess now), my question everyone is this:
What is too firm?
I know we've talked about the possibility of a course being TOO firm & fast, but what just about firm greens?
I just played today at my course and a fellow player complimented me on the fact that the greens this year actually hold a shot, as opposed to last year when he said "the last super had the greens like concrete....the putting was smooth and fast, but you couldn't land a ball on the green without it bouncing and running off to the back, let alone fix a ball mark if you did happen to hit the green."
And for this course, and the type of play we get, I agree. What are already overly slow rounds would become disaterous if well struck, lofty shots to the greens didn't hold at all.
