So I was planning on playing the WRO and was wondering if anyone can post a map of the course. I want to get an idea of these infamous water holes that the locals were talking about.

I don't know of any map that includes the bay holes. I know they have a map on the back of a score card for the regular course. I do know the B course that will be played is different from the B Course that has been played in the past.

I'll talk to Kaleb Ralph (WRO TD) to see if he has a map worked up and get something posted here, provided it does in fact exist.

I asked Kaleb if there were going to be:

a: course maps
b: tee signs
c: leaderboard

at the Windy River Open this year, because the lack of them is pretty much why I stopped going.

He said yes, all of the above, for both courses. :cheerleader:

Heading to the windy river and need some help with directions. Found the Columbia park but I need to know what gate, if there's more than one, we should be going into. Longitude/latitude would help or something to that effect. Thanks!

Hey Doug,

If your going on hwy 240 take the N. Edison Exit, head toward the river. You'll hit a "T" intersection, take a left. This is the main road through the park, and there are three other entrances as well, no gates. go about 1 mile course will be on the left. Course is right next to the road so you see baskets as you approach. Its really visible and easy to find. Heres a helpful link on the course

Any interesting updates to this tournament that is coming up this week? Just curious as I have not heard much about this event at all lately? Any one with a computer in Kennewick that has seen the course layout or condition? Any info would be great!

It played along the River for 5 holes then headed into the "Old" Campground which is now gone. It had some real nice holes and a few that could have used a bit more "thought" :whistler:

Overall it was an AWESOME event....:cheerleader::cheerleader:
