Appreciate the link, Garrett! Watching the play out there on Sunday only served to reinforce my thoughts, even if the cross bunkers on 2 were mostly* out of play. I only saw a couple of groups on 4-5-6, but in that I witnessed Stew Hagestad get a little greedy on 5 and caught by the corner bunker, leading to a loss of hole, and one player on 6 taking what looked like an ideal middle line off the tee, only to be blocked out by the trees down left on their second. Even if these guys are "lapping" the some of the key bunkers that matter to us mortals, they were still finding some of the main predicaments set forth by MacKenzie. Cool stuff. * "mostly" because those who pulled drives left down the cliff would sometimes have to lay back short of them

Really enjoyed the podcast on Napoleon GC last year and looking forward to see what all they can get done out there! The photo above gives the impression there is a good property to work with

Looking forward to one day playing Cobbs Creek. Those site photos are terrific. Also agree that the work going on at Woodhill in Minneapolis looks fantastic!

I'm an 18th hole defender! We talk about this a little in our video on the course as well as in my deep dive podcast on the course.

It probably depends on whether Raynor ultimately would have made 16 a long par 3 or a short par 4. If a long par 3, more likely he would have made it a Biarritz at that length. But of course that's total speculation. Perhaps Raynor had some idea of which templates would go where when he came up with his initial routing of the course, but he certainly didn't get to the point of putting anything specific down on paper. My understanding is that all we have of his work is a stick routing.

Would #16 have been a redan?!

I am eagerly anticipating my trip to Broomsedge with FEGC in October as well as playing Aiken Golf Club the same week. In November I'm heading to Cabot Citrus Farms. I have been very blessed with incredible golf opportunities this year.

Congratulations to you and your wife Ethan! That is exciting news!
