Steve and I are heading down with a couple of other friends tomorrow to check out the course. We should be there sometime around 1:30.
Kyle & others headed to Crystal Lake for practice,
For the tourament, Hole #4 will not be played from that ultra short tee. It is farther back near the path. You can tell where the wood chips have been worn away.
Also, Hole #6 will not be played to the wide open basket. Follow the berm and you will see where the old basket was. That is where a temp will be placed. It's a big 383 ft. anhyzer hole.
Last, be prepared with some off & spotters near hole 14. There is standing water on that fairway & they have not been able to mow. The park district has sprayed for skeeters & i've heard it's a lot better & that the water is going down.
Brett, could you ask your Crystal Lake contact if they could get a weed whacker on 14? Just something so that it's a bit more of a fairway?

That's in the works on Monday. I'm meeting a CLPD contact on Monday @ 4:00PM
Played 36 +++ Yesterday (Tuesday) 14 was being prepped for Tourney. Intimidating Hole ! If TD places Tee area under canopy of forest it will be the toughest hole on the course. #4 looks difficult if td strings it out 4o yards. Flat Course. Accurate strong arm with average putting skills can run away with it all.

#14 tee will be marked about 10 feet in front of the pole making it a 300ft shot.
#4 will be marked near the limestone trail to the south making it a 177ft hole.
