Mackenzie & Ebert year in review; reconfiguring bunkers on 4th at Sandwich
« on: January 31, 2015, 11:49:36 AM »
Nearly a month ago, Mackenzie & Ebert tweeted a link to a downloadable presentation that summarizes their year.  It's a large file (32MB & 137 pages), but well worth a look.  Some great pictures, with a short description of the type of work that they are doing.  They do seem to get around.

The presentation mentions that the famous bunkers on the 4th at Sandwich need to be "reconfigured" in the near future.  I sure hope that nothing is done to change the basic character of that hazard.

From what Martin Ebert has told me, GCAers will be _very_ happy with his plans.

Thanks, Adam. The term "reconfigure" was what concerned me.

Brian you won't remember those bunkers when the left sides had no sand and the right sides 18" of sand. They've been changed several times in my Deal experience.
