The answer to that will have to wait. I don’t want to put a mando up, but I might need to. If one group plays the hole and there’s no soccer, and another goes to play the hole and soccer is being played, it isn’t fair that one group has the option of going over the field and another doesn’t.

Mandos don't prevent bad throws. Considering 52 of the players are MA2, MA3, age protected, and female, this change seems very much targeted towards the minority of the field.

BT, in order to miss the mando, you’d have to intentionally throw over the soccer field. A well placed roller can get you close to the green, the mando won’t be missed with an errant shot, it would have to be an intentional throw off the side of the tee over the soccer field. The mando is to force the hole to be played the conventional route.

Out of everyone that has played 17 to 18, between leagues and the tournament in may, I’ve had about 3 people complain about it and about 70 people tell me it’s way better than original 17 and 18. It’s a really fun and challenging hole. It’s scorable as a par 4 from shorts and par 5 from longs.
