Alister and Bannister MacKenzie, tended the lush greens of the legendary St. Andrews Golf Course. They were men of the land, their hands calloused from years of toil under the harsh Scottish weather, their hearts as resilient as the rugged terrain they called home. After years working for others, the brothers had a dream of designing and creating their own golf course. After studying maps from all over the world and from talking to people they met playing at St. Andrews, they decided Canada was the place for them to start their new life. Alister and Bannister set sail across the Atlantic, seeking new horizons in the untamed wilderness of Canada. Little did they know, their journey would lead them to the icy embrace of British Columbia, where the land was harsh and unforgiving, and survival was a daily struggle against the elements.
In the harsh wilderness of British Columbia,the two brothers, battled against the biting cold and unforgiving terrain. They were rugged men, known for their resilience and unwavering determination. But even they were not prepared for the horrors that awaited them on a fateful winter expedition. Armed with little more than a map and their boundless optimism, the brothers ventured deep into the heart of the wilderness, their spirits high and their laughter echoing through the towering pines. But as the days turned into weeks and the landscape grew increasingly unfamiliar, their sense of direction began to falter, and doubt crept into their hearts. It was a combination of factors that led to their eventual loss: a sudden snowstorm that obscured their path, a wrong turn taken in haste, and the unforgiving terrain that seemed to shift and change with every step. Before they knew it, they found themselves hopelessly lost, their once clear path now obscured by the swirling snow and the looming shadows of the mountains. As the days stretched into weeks and the harsh winter tightened its grip, desperation took hold, driving the brothers to the brink of despair. They wandered aimlessly through the wilderness, their supplies dwindling with each passing day, their hopes of rescue fading like a distant memory.
Lost amidst the towering pines and snow-capped peaks, the brothers stumbled upon another group of weary travellers, led by the stoic Sir Reginald von Windsor III. As the weather worsened and travel became impossible, the two groups decided to join together and to build a camp in the hopes that they could see out the winter. But as the days turned into weeks and the harsh winter tightened its grip, their supplies dwindled, and desperation took hold. Sir Reginald, his once aristocratic demeanour now a mask of desperation, proposed a chilling solution, to use the bodies of the people that has passed away from either the cold or hunger as food. Shocked and repulsed, Alister and Bannister recoiled at the suggestion, but the relentless hunger gnawing at their insides drove them to consider the unthinkable. In the depths of the frozen nights, the brothers grappled with their conscience as the line between survival and savagery blurred, But even they succumbed to the primal urge to feed
.
Over time, only the brothers were left alive, with their only source of food now gone they knew they had to move on, it was their last hope, their only hope of survival. They trudged through the unforgiving wilderness of British Columbia, their spirits battered by loss and despair. They had endured the bitter cold, the relentless hunger, and the unyielding solitude, clinging to the faint hope of salvation in the vast expanse of the wilderness. As they pressed on, their bodies weakened by exhaustion and their minds clouded by grief, they stumbled upon a hidden valley pass nestled between the towering peaks. It was a narrow path, obscured by the swirling snow and the shadows of the mountains, but to the weary travellers, it was a beacon of hope in their darkest hour. As they navigated the winding path, their sense of direction faltered, and they found themselves adrift in a sea of uncertainty. But amidst the howling wind and the biting cold, a sense of clarity emerged, as they realized that their journey had led them not only into the heart of the wilderness but into the heart of their own souls. For in the depths of their despair, Alister and Bannister discovered a newfound strength, born of the bonds of brotherhood and the resilience of the human spirit. With each step, they cast aside the shadows of doubt and fear, their resolve hardened by the challenges they had faced and the losses they had endured. And as they emerged into the sun-drenched valley beyond, a sense of wonder washed over them, for they had discovered not only a path to survival but a sanctuary in the wilderness where they could start anew. With tears of gratitude streaming down their faces, Alister and Bannister embraced, their hearts overflowing with hope and renewal.
As they stood in awe of the breathtaking vista before them, Alister and Bannister exchanged a knowing glance, a silent agreement passing between them. But their shared moment of triumph was short-lived, for a rift had formed between the brothers, born of the argument over what to name their newfound land. Bannister, ever the traditionalist, insisted on the name "Kenzie Pass," a testament to their shared heritage and the trials they had overcome together. But Alister, always the dreamer, favored "Kenzie Crossing," a nod to the journey that had brought them to this moment and the paths that lay ahead. Unable to reconcile their differences, the brothers went their separate ways, each determined to leave their mark on the valley that had become their new home. And so, with hearts heavy with regret and rivalry, Alister and Bannister set out to design their own golf courses, one named "Kenzie Pass" and the other "Kenzie Crossing," each a reflection of their divergent visions and conflicting desires. And as the years passed and the courses took shape, their rivalry simmered beneath the surface, a silent testament to the bond that had once united them and the pride that now drove them apart.
As the years passed, the MacKenzie brothers' families grew and multiplied, each kin loyal to their patriarch's vision of the valley's future. On one side stood the descendants of Alister, fiercely protective of Kenzie Crossing, viewing it as a symbol of progress and innovation. On the other side stood the progeny of Bannister, steadfast in their allegiance to Kenzie Pass, a bastion of tradition and heritage. The feud between the MacKenzie clans simmered beneath the surface, fueled by pride, resentment, and the weight of the brother rivalry. Skirmishes erupted sporadically, with accusations of trespassing, sabotage, and theft echoing through the valley like thunder in a storm. The once peaceful landscape became a battlefield, where the echoes of the past mingled with the cries of the present. Despite their best efforts to maintain peace, the brothers found themselves unable to quell the animosity that had taken root in the hearts of their kin. Each side clung fiercely to their beliefs, unwilling to yield an inch of territory or compromise their principles.
The feud between the MacKenzie brothers, reached its tragic climax on a crisp autumn morning on the rolling greens of Kenzie Crossing .As the mist hung low over the fairways and the first light of dawn painted the landscape in hues of gold and amber, Alister stepped onto the 18th hole, his heart heavy with the weight of the choices that had brought them to this moment. Unbeknownst to him, Bannister lay in wait, concealed among the shadows of the trees, his rifle trained on his unsuspecting brother. The bitterness and resentment that had simmered beneath the surface for years had finally boiled over, driving him to commit the ultimate act of betrayal .As Alister lined up his shot, his mind consumed with thoughts of redemption and reconciliation, a single gunshot shattered the tranquility of the morning, echoing through the valley like a thunderclap. Time seemed to stand still as Alister fell to the ground, a crimson stain spreading across the pristine greens of Kenzie Crossing. His breath came in ragged gasps as he struggled to comprehend the magnitude of what had just occurred, the betrayal cutting deeper than any physical wound.
Through the haze of pain and shock, Alister's gaze fell upon his brother, who emerged from the shadows like a specter of death, his face twisted with rage and regret. In that moment, as their eyes met across the expanse of blood-stained grass, Alister saw not a brother but a stranger, consumed by hatred and consumed by pride. With trembling hands and a heart heavy with grief, Bannister stood over his fallen brother, his rifle still smoking in his hands. In that moment of clarity, he realized the true cost of his actions, as the weight of his betrayal settled like a stone in the pit of his stomach. As the first light of dawn bathed the valley in its golden glow, Alister's lifeblood mingled with the dew-drenched grass, a poignant reminder of the bonds of brotherhood that had been torn asunder by the bitter winds of hatred and pride. In a moment of clarity, Bannister realized the futility of their feud, a bitter cycle of pride and resentment that had consumed their lives and torn their family apart. Bannister knew that the only hope to end the feud was for him to join his brother in the afterlife, that with both heads of the family gone, maybe the younger generations can finally bring peace to the valley. With a heavy heart, Bannister reached for his rifle, his hands trembling as he raised it to his temple. In that moment, amidst the silence of the valley and the fading light of the setting sun, he made his final decision, a desperate act born of love and despair, with a single, fatal shot, he ended his own life, his body falling to the ground in a silent plea for peace.
With the brothers gone, over time the tensions eased as each generation came and went, the families rarely mixed and every now and then a harsh word, a punch thrown brought back memories of the past and the out and out violence of the feud never returned. Todays the courses are run by descendants of brother with Kenzie Crossing run bobbyj by and Kenzie Pass run by retteach. To avoid bringing a feeling of superiority to one family, I have decided to use both courses over the coming weeks. I choose to use Pass first which I hope Rob does not take as a slight or Troy thinks that it is because it is the better course, or that Rob thinks, using Pass first is just the appetizer to the main course of Passing. Can you imagine that by picking courses for the tour, a feud from the past reignites. You, the Kinetic player would have to choose sides based on which course you like better, you would have to be prepared for the course and family of your choice and the next two weeks would not just about golf, but about survival, which is some way would be like the forming of these courses and the survival of Alister and Bannister MacKenzie. Should we lose some players over the next two weeks though, a promotion event will refill the ranks of Kinetic, so good luck, have fun and should the feud reignite, survive.
