Default Canyon Course Pins.

I will try and keep this Thread up to let people know where the baskets are. Right now holes 1, 5, 7, 11, 12, and 15 all have a long and short. 1 only goes long for tourney play. As more get added i will updated the list.

Hole 5 - Long
Hole 7 - Long
Hole 11 - Long
Hole 12 - Long
Hole 15 - Long

hey andy,

just an idea, but i would looove to see 12 in the long... since i just can't seem to ace it in the short . the long position makes it my favorite hole on that course.

I've only seen #12 in the long once. It seems to be the least used of all the long positions out there.

... it's often in the long for tourneys and stuff... it's just such an awesome pin placement, even if it does take away one of the gimmie birdies out there...

Looking to change hole 12 up just a little bit. Was thinking to drop the basket just a little bit from the long position, but then someone suggested making a fairway so you could throw a lefty hizer up at the current long position.
Thoughts?

I prefer that idea over simply making the hole shorter. I actually think the current long position is a pretty cool hole as it is. Unlike the short position, it is not an easy birdie, but it is possible with a very good drive.

i agree with hagerty... the long placement is a great green... would be disappointed to see that lost... doesn't seem like too many trees would have to come down to create a fairway for the lefty heyzer... thank you for asking, bob!

Default 12 is in Long

So moved 12 to long and picked up all the ankle biters in flight path.

Thanks Rich Dixon and Dan Brown who carried the basket up to the long pin.

Blast Away!!!!

We will see how long, it can stay in long, which will be at least a month or so.

Cool thanks, I love that long green; and like the idea about creating a lefty/forehand line. Although a buddy already has been exploring that line for awhile.
Thanks again,
'J'

All baskets on the Canyon course, including hole #1, are now in long positions for the upcoming tournaments.
