O Lake seems to be one major course there isn't a whole heap of pics of on GCA. I'd love if you could post any others you have.

Kevin -
Nice tour of the O Club... sun is shining here today and I'm headed out for my first round of the year on the course (pathetic, I know). Couple things - all which have been discussed ad nauseum here before:
+ Hole 8. IMO plays 1 club too long for everyday play. And take out that back bunker... as the only one of its kind on the course that can be seen (there's on #2 but it's not visible until you realize you're actually in it), it doesn't fit with the other 17 green complexes.
+ Trees. Like it or not, it's part of the tradition and aura of the Lake course. I'm glad that many have been cleared out within the past half-dozen years, as the turf conditions have improved dramatically.

How did you go after the lay-off ?
I saw a photo history tour in the locker room and it was amazing to the the transformation of the course over time. Why are they finding the need to plant new seedlings ? is there a disease in some of the existing trees ?

I cant comment on the old v new side of things but there was a thread on a "progression v vandalism" theme if you do a search.
The "new" 8th is a strong hole in line with the rest of the course. I wouldn't think there'd be too many played from the back bunker though ?
