Having grown up in Louisville, I had the opportunity to play Big Springs many times. And yes, I have played it since the redo. IMHO, Rees screwed up 2 good holes in lieu of creating 2 other good holes for a push. He shortened #6, was a medium iron par 3 to a short iron par 3 and lengthened #7 to a good par 4 from an easy par 4. He did a similar thing with #12 and #13. #12 was a good strategic par 4, which now is a nothing par 4, but made #13 which was a nothing par 4 into a very good par 4 by lengthening it. For whatever they paid, I use to know the number, I would have expected a lot more.
