Can't say I like the new layout, but if the city if forcing your hand then..... I wish I had seen that Downriver was going to be changed because I would've tried to offer some input prior to the vote. But I'll offer it anyways, at least for hole 15. There is already an alternate teepad in a grand location closer to the basket and to the right of the current position (with small log in place for seating). My friends and I use this location to avoid having to chase the occasional bad shot down the hill (not that we're bad, we all usually shoot around 5 or so). This now becomes a shot requiring more accuracy than power and creates a much tighter fairway that steers clear of the bank. This would be a relatively inexpensive change requiring only the work to move the pad/sign instead of moving the basket, additional work for tree removal, and cleanup. The only issue this position has right now is some slight crossfire with 14 that isn't any worse than any other 'bad spot' on the course. This could also allow 14 to stay in it's current position and remain a hole that my friends and I all enjoy very much. Take it or leave it, but I like it!
