Default Hole changes..

I noticed a couple weeks ago that the white tee for hole 1 was moved up. I assume this was done because the old tee box flooded. Can anyone tell me when exactly this was done? Has the new distance to the hole been measured?

Also, I noticed that the basket and white and blue tees for hole 10 was moved today. Any new distances yet for that hole?

White #1 was moved because of flooding, correct

10 basket and tees were moved because of the trees on the right side being removed and the delays it caused with the trail.

White #10 - 325'
Blue #10 - 366'

Soon we will be modifying 11 & 12, then correcting the flow on 6-9

What kind of changes will be made on 11 and 12? Just curious.

Also, when you say correct the flow of 6-9, what does that mean? New path? Different hole order?

Thanks again for all your hard work.

Really appreciated.

11 will shift, 12 becomes an entirely new hole that links up better to 13

The flow between 6-9 will be fixed by adding a new hole 6 that throws from down below 5 to a basket up on the plateau. Current 6 becomes reversed as new hole 9.

This is actually the 'original' design, but we could not implement it fully until now.

Here's a map

Oh wow. Big changes ahead. What is the timeframe?

I'm sure you have considered everything regarding this layout but are you concerned about the lack of mowing along the bayou, specifically for the new tees for hole 6?

Also, will the new hole 9 basket be located before or after the tree tunnel?

And finally, do you know the new distance from the white 1st tee?

Thanks.

Btw, feel free to delete this thread and just PM me if you want to. I know I have a lot of specific quesitions and I don't want to clutter up the board.

So we're going to make the players cross the drainage ditch to get to the other side on the new 6? That doesn't seem safe, given the fact that it will have water in it sometimes, and if it's raining, it will be slick on the sides of the concrete. Has the city approved this?
