Any thouhgts on this one.  I belive Donald Ross and Tom Benedelow worked here at different times.  Hows the terrain and routing.  Are the green complexes of interest  ?
How does it compare to Long Vue or St. Clair

Thanks

I haven't played it in years.  As I remember a very interesting layout.  Some of it is very old and some quite new.  You cross several streets to play thr course; the result of modern zoning i'm sure.  As a result the course is quite incongruous -- some really interesting old green complexes on a generally short front ninr and a completely different look on most of the back nine.  The club occupies some wonderful W Pa terrain and is a superb club -- the late, great Judy Bel lwas a member.  Overall I would say very intersting, enjoyable but flawed.  Perhaps a 4 on the doak scale.
