I played Horning's today with the new tee and pin positions.
Both the new tee positions are good. I wouldn't say either adds significant difficulty, but I like them better.
Pins:
1. Hadn't been moved, but I saw the new anchor. I like the looks of it.
5. Farther down the path. A fairly straight shot no longer gets the job done, and I'm not throwing a putter anymore. Still an easy par, but a birdie will take more work. I like it.
7. Deeper, slightly right (I think), and more protected. This will take a more strategic line to get a bird. Again, I like it.
11. Farther to the left and slightly deeper. Basically this just adds to the challenge. Before you had to go way left without hitting trees. Now you have to go way left without hitting trees. Again, I like it.
12. Holy hell. This one got a lot more difficult. And not just because I hit lots of trees. It's much deeper and up the hill to the left. Apparently, Bob was very angry about birdies and ace runs on this hole. Rest easy, Bob. No more ace runs here.
15. Longer, more protected. Pretty much calls for the same throw, but stepping up from a mid to a fairway driver.
Great work, Bob. Thanks so much!!!
