Pete Dyes first 18 hole course but different than newer courses no pierd bunkers not that its easy, if you think it is move back to back tees. Many times going though narrow trees to greens or fairways.
really injoyed playing and will play again.

My second shot on the first hole was in the right rough not bad 100 yard shot in got ready to make my shot and heard the gang mower coming it passed 5 foot from me never slowing or stopping right into my line so I waited till he was out of the way to make my shot the weird part 1/2 way back to where I was he stopped to take a break but wouldn't stop for me like most courses would have done. So day didn't start off great. Kept playing got to the 12th hole another mower was working a small area in a dogleg he never once looked to see if anyone was on the tee and because I had played there before I knew where he was could easily be in play waited 5 minutes or more never did he check to see tee so I hit and only as I passed him did he even realize I was even there.
The final straw was I hadn't had anyone in front of me all day or behind me for that matter now there's a foursome teeing off on 13 right in front of me. I have seen a lot of this on this course before people just going anywhere with no reguard to anyone else. Lessen learned places don't change. I left the course without finishing. Not worth the frustration.
I know that Jim and Steve have always been cordial and friendly but they need to train there crews.

Scorecards with tips for each hole helps for first timers. Fast greens have a feel of a true championship course. I liked that it has a little of everything traditional and links some hills and valleys not my favorite style but very playable.
