I walked the old course last Sunday with Michael Moore, and the first tiem he took out his camera from his man bag, I hear him say, under his breath: "'Photo!' I think were not in Kennebunckport any more....."
It was my first time too, at the changed holes (except for 2 and 17 which I saw last winter), and it all looks good, and the course is in great shape for this time of the year. The most significant change continues to be the new right green side bunkers on 2, but they seem to work wel-- not really affecting the golfer's strategy for the Sunday/center-green pin placement, but strengthening a few potential pin positions on the flat/rgiht side of the green. The changes on 7 fairway seem to be more of a tidying up than significant change. The new bunkers on the right half of 9 fairway will allow for a pin position which will make the pros think, and tighten up the tee shot for the casual visitor. Michael and I searched hard to find the new putative back-left pin position on the 11th, but to no avail. There is a finger long right (on the 11th's part of the double green) which seems new and would offer an occasional change from the normal "behind the front bunker" position. As for the Road Hole bunker, it has been re-revetted again, and functions prety much as it has for the last 40 years or so, even if it is better manicured, as is the trend these days.
Michael should be back home soon, and I hope he (as a sophisticated observer but complete newbie to TOC) will chime in with his comments.
