Bandon Preserve teaser photos...

[Joe Bentham]

here are a couple of photos of the Preserve.  The first 2 are from 17 fairway at Bandon Dunes.  The third is from 18 tee at Bandon Dunes.
The holes with grass on them looked like the ones without grass on them a month ago.

Not that they have any weaknesses, but Coore & Crenshaw seem to make particularly spectacular par 3s. A course with 13 of them sounds awesome.

Does anyone know when The Preserve will be open for play?  I believe I read summer 2012.  Correct?

Took the full tour this afternoon....spectacular.  As 'fun' a golf course as I've ever seen....can't wait to see some balls bouncing around it and put that theory to the test.

What's with the USGA yard-arms?

I think thats a partial shot of the 1st tee at BT when the Publinx was there earlier this year.

Thanks.  That makes sense.

Joe:
When will the course be open?

Joe,

Thanks for posting, keep 'em comin'.  It already looked pretty sweet in late July.  By next spring it will be a very tempting late afternoon diversion...

[Brad Wilbur]

I would assume that it's going to be most crowded in the later part of the day, when people have finished 36, but still want a little more fun (and with the third round at no fee)?
