JC admitted that after his first time around, years ago, he thought the 8th green was over the top. He then birdied the hole yesterday in a gale,(30mph+), with the upper right pin position.
When we were on #5, our balls were feet apart off the back. We were playing a match and were partners. I went first and chose to play the side board to get close (which I did) then, we decided he should try to play the internal contour, which he did, and put it even closer. Major grins all the way around.
The course looked and played absolutely fantastic. The turf has grown in to near perfection and the greens were likely the best I have ever seen them.
Dave Hensley has done a superlative job.
