Anyone have any comments on that course?

I get confused which Carmel course is which. What I perceive to be the newer one has a very short par 3 as number 10. Which course is that?

It's the North that has a par3  10th hole:

When I played the Muni in Wilmington back in October, I wondered if perhaps we would see more of Fought doing renovations in the SE.

Re the title:  Why did John have to fight so hard?  Are the members stubborn?

The North has historically been the shorter of the two with more fairway contour and quirk so I wonder what the game plan is here. #10 is the blandest hole in all Charlotte so losing it will be an upgrade.
