I just played this course for the first time today as a tune-up. I have 3 questions.

1. On hole 8 which is the weird u-turn hole. Is that played as a mando or is it allowed to take a backdoor approach if desired.

2. On hole 9 I'm assuming the ditch is OB?

3. I don't remember the hole number, but it's a short par 3 with two fairway options, there's a forehand route to the left and a backhand out over a swampy watery area. I'm assuming that water is played as OB?
