Played BGC this fall and overall I was impressed. The routing was excellent with short walks from green to tee, a few holes (like 7th green to 8th, and 8th green to 9th tee) had closely mown areas which morphed into the tee box. The holes are laid out in all different directions, which makes it difficult to read the wind. The course also offers a outstanding variety of tee shots, several of which are semi-blind or totally blind. I was not thrilled with the totally blind tee shot off #1. I loved the bunkering throughout, especially the 6th, which is a reverse redan with Pine Valley like waste area which wraps around the right side of the green. Havn't made my mind up on #5. If there is any wind it will be the most demanding pitch shot of your life. Several of the green are WAY over the top in terms of slope. There is one par three, I think it may be #11 which is very wild. I think #12 would be a better hole with a little less slope in the green. If they get their greens running fast, there may be only 2 hole locations there. Would like to have a crack at it on a calm 80 degree day rather than the 50 degrees we played in. One of the top 10 courses of the past 50 years? no, but I enjoyed it.
