A top quality entry in the ever expanding 'Terrible Courses of PGA Season 6' anthology.
Highlights being the bushes across one fairway (those greenkeepers are clearly miracle workers cutting the fairway under them), the dog-leg par 3's round / through trees, the (several) artificial ponds 80ft up in a mountain (who cares about physics?) and the multiple greens running massively away from the player. Stunningly bad.
As was most of my speed golf. MC with -16, -31 if a miracle cut.

Glad I had a practice round yesterday to scope the lay of the land. Rd1 -12 even with a double bogey on the horror 6th green. Sunk some wicked putts and had a flop in. Rd2 -13 putted nice again and was a bit more careful on those precarious pins Rd3 -10 solid round Rd4 -13 Full on attack the flags payed off. Clutch putting again and another flop in eagle. -48 total and happy with the effort on a pretty tricked up course. Cheers

My least favorite course we’ve played in a while. What was the deal with a branch hanging in front of 16 tee blocking half the green? Why multiple par 5s with a long uphill approach to a green that slopes away?
Anyway I putted well but didn’t hit it very close. I think I was -47 which should end up around 20th in my estimation. Kinda speed golfed around the course anyway

My first week up here at the PGA. That course was....interesting, to say the least.

I haven’t started or anything so I’ve got no clue how it looks, but did you pick this one Dan?

-1, -7 for a likely demotion strike. Played round 3 just for fun and was -15. I will miss that aspect of this game.

-7, -16 for -23 at the cut. Touch and go whether that makes it.
That first round was pretty rude. Had a 4-shot swing on the front 9. Knocked my approach to 9' behind the pin on I think 4, lipped out and ran 50' away. Bogey. Knock my approach to 5' on 6. Massive turner, caught at least half the hole before it took off down that massive slope and off the green. Bogey.
At least made up for it R2.

-11,-12 at the cut. Interesting course...missed a few easy putts but that’s usual for me.

There's a tree blocking #16 tee box. In practice round I hit the ball straight off the tee, straight at the flag, hit the tree and it ends up in water. Your judgment whether that's fair.

Except had to chip twice to get back up.
