Totally unsatisfactory.  Where are the yardages for each individual set of tees on each hole.  

I await further and better particulars..

And don't forget to figure out the Course Rating and Slope.

I assume these numbers are meters so it would be nice to convert them to yards for Matt. :)

Funny. Happy New Year. Matt has had his medication adjusted and seems to be doing much better now. :)

Based strictly off the yardage (6697 yards) without any consideration for obstacles or effective playing length corrections,  the course rating would be 71.3 and the slope would be 115.

Sorry I didnt list a rating and slope earlier but like many on this board I am a bit of an old school purist. To me the beauty and depth of a course lies in its yardages, not its slope.

But since you asked, I had a look at a few photos of some of the holes (some of which were actually taken from playing angles) and it seems that the rating is between 73.4 and 73.6 and the slope is between 133 and 134.
