Hopefully this will not be an issue at the next ROO!

6 hasn't held up, though. It degraded more slowly than it could've, and it's not as bad as 5 or 7, but especially with the tiny size it's still one I tee off from the side of. I rolled my ankle on it a couple times not long after the lumber and fill was added.
