The new bunkers on the right of 14 are just past (10 yards or so) the old set and match them fairly well. Not sure as to the bunkers on the left of the fairway, not the side I missed the fairway on. :-)
The old 5th is now a huge house. I've got a pic around here somewhere. Built by a car dealer from SF or SJ I was told.
The big tree in the middle of 18 now has pitch canker and is dying. It looks pretty bad.They are looking for a replacement but, by law, Pebble can't cut the tree down until completely dead.
Tees on 16 are being reworked.
No.2 green is open and is 100% bent. It's very firm and very fast. I'm told PB is trying a new strain of bent that may be able to survive there. If so, look for all PB's greens to go to bent in the future. (Yipee)
Also, the new layout at MPCC are taking shape. You can really tell it's a Stranz on some of the holes. Very picturesque, especially the holes near 17Mile Dr. I hope this doesn't scare anyone but a couple of holes had a Tot Hill Farm look to them with the way he used the rocks, bunkers and fairway contours.
