I agree with Mike (post was deleted) that reimagining hole 12 might help with the consistent backups regularly experienced. A few ideas have been floating around on how to make this amazing course flow even better. One such idea was to have a drop zone for those that have trouble off the tee (if the tee shot does not make it to the designated safe area then they go to the drop zone). Another idea is to clean up the lines after the fairway bends to the right (make it more of a test of skill versus a poke and hope type shot). And, moving the red and white tee pads about 75-100 feet closer to the bend in the fairway may make sense too (with the blue tee set as a par 5 and white being a par 4 but only 111 feet shorter, seems like a much more difficult task to make par from white than blue). Another idea discussed is to make hole 11 a little more difficult in order to slow the speed of cards arriving to hole 12. These are just a few of the ideas I have heard and hopefully we can come up with some strategy to address this concern.
