Just curious what the logic was around cutting down all the trees? Not sure if this is the right place to ask.
Ultimately it was the city and their safety teams decision, they did not consult with us unfortunately prior to this work. From my experience working in parks departments, trees are assessed yearly and if they are dead and pose potential risk to patrons they are removed. It’s very unfortunate and really quite sad but it was unfortunately out of our hands.
Oh - what trees are we talking about?
Hole 15/16
Thanks Kyle, I hope you don't have to answer that question 100 times during the tournament.
Definitely makes 15 a lot easier. Didn't change approach for me on 16 with the current pin placement. If it were by the lake the open route would be much easier for RHBH.
Those old cottonwood were nice and welcome shade. They also dropped a lot of debris on the course. If its a mixed tournament there's a nice test of wooded and open holes I think.
By mixed I mean both Blair/Lower and Upper Badlands in play.
