spent some time playing both layouts a downriver this morning and came up with what i see as the pros and cons to both layouts ( not sure what eric has planned for the changes) old layout with alts, pros are that it has been around for years, some very memorable holes, it is tried and true and people keep playing it and it will take 50-100 bucks less to finish, cons are that it is fairly easy with only a few chalanging holes and no accuracy really needed and some of the best ( my opinion) holes 2,3,8,15 and toughest holes 9(old 11) have to be removed. the new layout pros it is a very chalanging course but with out adding to much distance ( overall a shorter course) releaves the most eroded and damaged parts of the course and lets the player appretiate the beauty of the area, the cons are it will take time to get used to it will take alot of work ( witch i have offered to do through my company) and it will cost a little more (again 50-100 bucks). again i am fine with either way as long as it is a decision made by the club members and not by the board.
