The greens are some of the best I've ever played.  Fast and firm and running true.

#5 is a piece of a cake.  During the last KP I hit 3 wood/9 iron to 3.5 feet and sunk the putt for bird!!!  But woe unto him who misses the green long, may as well just pick up and put a double bogey on the card.  ;)

Bill, Play Spanish Bay and enjoy the stunning views. After your round enjoy a drink and listen to the bagpipes as the sun sets. One advantage at SB is the private feel to the course. You don't have coach buses pulling in as at PB . I played Poppy 6weeks ago at the KP and found it to be very nice but a real brute. The first hole punches you right out of the gate 440yd tight , wellbunkered monster. SB begins with a short par 5 aptly named"To The Sea". SB is a more relaxing course in my opinion to play. Jack
