A lil birdie has been pinching me about the course proposal.
As you can see with the quickdraw of a following proposal:
Old Course will require the following:
1) Ripping out concrete teepads of Pro #4 and both tees from #15
2) Inserting a treerific hole for #3 to connect between #2 new pin and #3 tee.
3) Inserting hole #5 coming out adjacent to #4 pin and going back into the woods.
4) Having teepad coming out of the woods going to current #4 pin to become #6
5) Having a treerific hole for #14 that comes out to the bridge - and crosses to current #17
6) 18 Ends at current #14
Note: current 15, 16, 18 becomes part of the new course.
New Course
Current 15 tee will change towards across the road from the practice basket by the Y in the road.
16 becomes #2
18 becomes #3
Then crosses the road on the east side
Picture New hole #7 - In order to incorporate the fountain and multitude of flowers - we will need a par 4 long hole to ensure everyone is throwing towards a landing area to avoid people trampling in the flowers.
#12 - might need some revision due to the fact that it will run along the road.
Around new holes #14, 15, 16, 17 - we must take into consideration that there is a small underutilized ballpark in that area.
new #16 will need some tree trimming.
Thoughts:
This layout allows for 33 continous holes should one be wanting.
I tried to minimize the potential "destruction/removal" of the current course. This being said, only 3 teepads will have to be removed with my current proposal. #4 blue tee, #15 red and blue tee.
Current #2 old pin will be somewhat out of the way in a reverse function of its current use.
We will need to figure out erosion control for the 4 wooded holes in the layout.
Should we be unable to use proposed old course layout #3 in the woods - we can add another hole by the bridge going out of the woods between #11(proposed 13) blue teepad and the lagoon.
Heavily populated area of playground/nelson center/baseball field are avoided.
Right now, I do not know the cross country trails to where we would have to do some minor tweaks in order to avoid being ON the path in terms of basket/tee.
we also would have no restroom facilities directly accessible to most of the course.
Trash will be a problem as there are limited trash bins.
And both #18's will end up with walking back to the current parking lot we have.
