Oak Meadows Restoration

[John Murray Jr.]

Interested to see what you guys think of the restoration plan for Oak Meadows in Addison, Illinois (old claim to fame - Elmhurst Country Club where Hogan won the Chicago Open).

This "old" course will always have a special place in my heart as that is the last course I played with my dad before he passed many years ago.

I haven't seen the new course, but I didn't mind the old one the few times I played it.  I know it did not drain well and I believe that a few holes were almost completely under water along the river when the rain was really heavy.  I will be most excited to see how many trees are no longer there because the old course had a couple classic examples of trees encroaching over fairway cuts.
