Title: Bandon Preserve teaser photos...
Post by: Joe Bentham on June 24, 2011, 03:58:33 PM: 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.

Post by: Joe Bentham on October 06, 2011, 03:28:20 AM: 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.

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

When will the course be open?

Post by: Jud_T on October 06, 2011, 04:22:31 PM: 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...

Post by: Brad Wilbur on October 06, 2011, 04:57:01 PM: 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)?
