Hey all, sorry for the late start this week. I didn't get back from vacation until last night, and it was a pretty fantastic vacation. I have followed along a little bit with the feedback so far for Explorer Ridge, and I see that most find it on the easier side. I do hear the calls for a little more challenging track, but I'll just point out a few things.
1. Explorer Ridge was a course already suggested when I took over the schedule. I played it and found it a very interesting course, perhaps on the easy side, but could be challenging with a bit of wind, so I decided to keep it.
2. We still need to wait and see what the final scores will be here to determine it's true difficulty. I know that last week some felt the course was too easy, but it proved to be the hardest course that Web has played in the last 5 weeks outside of Castleberry, as you can see by the numbers below.
3. The 2nd round of courses that I picked for June should play tougher than what we are likely seeing here or at Gewella.
4. Even the PGA plays a birdie fest once in awhile. Some people excel at birdie fest courses, others do better on a tough track. Playing both comes with the Tour life!

I don't have a course poll this week, but rather I am looking for suggestions. I am starting to ramp up my play schedule in search of courses for July and August, and I'd like to hear about the courses that everyone is playing and feels would be a good stop for the Web.com. I can't guarantee I will pick anyone's course in particular, but if it's on my list to play I will bump it to the top, or add it to my list if it's not already there.
I will consider any course theme except for Harvest/Autumn. Outside of Bunyip, I won't add another until likely late August or early September. I would like to get one Tropical in for later in July or early August, but want to give people time to get the update and play some of the available courses. I'd also consider one Desert for later to mix things up, and after the update will also look for one Delta to add to the mix. The rest are all fair game, and the more diversity the better.
Thanks, as always, for the feedback!
