I was in Chattanooga for the weekend at my wife's High School Reunion...
I went out there Saturday afternoon (very hot and humid) to watch the semi-finals. There was an hour and a half rain delay.
Some observations:
- very picturesque course ... the property was a the confluence of several streams that were dammed up to form a couple lakes (really well done and very natural in look) w/ many holes playing over and around these lakes, a lot of natural stone used near and around green sites .. a fair amount of roll to the property
- a very severe course ... they wanted a tough course and they got one .. a significant rub of the green in that some missed approaches leave simple up and downs and some 4 feet away from that spot are in 16" high junk or an unplayable pot bunker
- very few birdies, in fact some fairly ragged play
- very fast speed of play which I found surprising ... I thought all of college golf was slow or extremely slow.
- the par threes at this course are a bit of a let down relative to other Dye courses
