I was the third guy who joined Mike N and Will in the two day golf experience at Wolf Point Club.
Thoughts from a mid-handicapper:
1) Regardless of how well or poorly I had hit my current shot, I so looked forward to hitting my next shot. I felt this way on every shot. All four rounds.
2) Despite the fairway's flowing rolls and mounds, I can't recall the ball being very much above or below my feet in four rounds.
3) Some very deceptive bunkering. Some that definately seemed in play (#8, #17) really aren't and conversely some that don't seem in play really are (one on #3 comes to mind)
4) Visual from tees were very appealling, natural, and provided a calming sense (at least to me.) It didn't seem intimidating (which is a rare feeling for a 90's shooter with a driver in hand.) It's only until you are trying to hold a green from the 'wrong' angle with your approach that you realize you had a false sense of security on the tee.
5) You can run the ball onto every green except, I think, #14 where there is a creek.
6) Options around the greens are endless. You can legitimately putt, chip, flop, pitch, putt a hybrid from lots of areas short of the green. I chose to putt alot from 10-20yds short and it was awesome.
It's an extremely unique, fun, challenging course for every level of player. It was fun to walk and play the course with two players who were better than me, especially Will who is a teaching pro. Interesting to see how our approaches to each shot were similar or dissimilar.
I think WPC is a course that is proof positive of what happens when the owner, designer, and superintendant are all on the same page. It's that good!
I'll discuss favorite/individual holes when I get a chance.
