Hard is certainly not a negative (or easy a negative). I think we have a good collection for Q school, although I was scoring really well on Harbor before the frame rate issues, and cant seem to score well on Kodiak. Here are my personal rankings as far as easist to score to hardest (to score).. - Mount Yeti (easier to score)
- Whispering River
- Copper Creek
- Crawford Mines
- Son Gual
- Kodiak (hard to score)
I realize I will get better on Kodiak, but there is no place to land the ball on approaches. Hit in front of the green, still catch a slope. If I can shoot -24 I would be happy, but I had better be -22 or better after four rounds to do that...
What is the easist/hardest for you?

For me Yeti, because of wind and Copper because there is so many bunkers in play, they both give me the most trouble. I just shot -8 on Kodiak, -6 back I think. I think the secret there is not to bounce from off the green but land on it and go for the long putt. Well that pretty much works for all the firm courses. Any of these courses demand a good short game, you can map your full shot irons till your blue, but how many have mapped all the different lies for their short game? In following ghosts on those courses that is where a lot of people can shave most of their strokes IMHO. With a good short game you are teeing off -4, just play the other holes safe and a few bombs will drop. Again Just MO.

I personally think Son Gual will be the hardest but on a good day i can score well on that.
Tbh i can have a bad round on any of the courses but that's up to how im playing that day.

have not played the new copper creek yet, but if the old were still in, it would be hands down the hardest

I still think copper creek, and my practice rounds would say the same

Son Gual and Kodiak are tough for me. I find copper very easy because the softness of the greens. I dont appreciate playing on what feels like concrete or a hardwood floor. Hopefully I can work on kodiak as I have just starting giving that one a go, but son gual feels like a lost cause, however I may have found something on my last 9 there.

Son Gual is still my archenemy...so that one. Don't mistake that for being a bad course...we just don't get along.

Son Gual's fimness and lightning fast greens demands precision. If you are coming off Yeti with slower greens I find that putting on Son Gual is so much more difficult and down right frustrating at times.
The thing that sets this game apart from all the golf games I've played in my life and I've played a lot. It keeps you engaged and thinking all the time. I've found myself starting off with a couple of birdies and then I think that I am going to dominate this round only to get complacent and make a couple of bogies or double bogies

After finally playing a round and many partial rounds I had to change my vote to Kodiak. That's one tough course. Greens are so fast and I end up with too many chip shots and I'm not very good at the chip.
