How did you measure it BTW?

I measured with a 100 foot tape. They all could go a little bit longer I think. Thanks for you input.

Just drop me a line on here. I am free Sundays and after 6 any day. Now with the time change should be able to fit a round in after 6. My course layout takes half the time as the old one also.

This layout would require 3 basket moves and 4 new tees. Anyone have any idea how much concrete that would take? Just to plant the signs and buckets not for tee pads, hopefully that will come later.

The P.oak is almost gone completely and the blackberries are knocked way back. The land itself is coming along very nicely. Scott emailed me back about the course and said they are 4 sponsors away from having concrete tees. Sounds like it is a good time for a reconstruction before the tees are permanent.

Hey thanks again. My idea is being shopped around by Scott at P&R to some other DG'ers that he knows. Hope they like it. Thanks also for joining the FB page, I want to start linking up and playing some rounds with people on that. Maybe have a FB weekly or something. Does anyone know when the guys in The Dalles start there weeklies?

I know that there are some of them on here... you might want to ask that in the Sorosis Park forum page.

The course is run over by tall grass and leaf filled branches. The HRDGC is in some major need of some love. Hope to talk to PandR soon and figure out a way to remedy this. For now it is the long drive to The Dalles for us Hood DG'ers

I have a gas powered weed eater (available to me) and some pruning sheers. Just tell me when and where.

They mowed the main fairways and I did not see a lot of P. Oak. We are gonna spend the evenings down there raking and maybe doing some branch clearing on a few holes. So it should be playable... Still no date on a work party... Hope it is soon.

We will be at the park around 6:30 Wed. evening trying to do some improvements if anyone wants to stop in for a short round or give us a hand. Rakes, gloves, pruning shears are the main weapons I think... Happy Discin' everyone

Jody and I did a lot of branch clearing on hole one and as much as we could on hole 8. Tonight we will focus on hole 2 and that side of the course. If anyone wants to come out we will be out there around 7pm. We have limited tools so rakes, trash bags, limb loppers and shovels might be good things to bring. Oh and gloves the blackberries are really pokey! Thanks and happy huckin'!
