I figured as the Kickoff Classic is going to be at this amazing venue it needed it's own thread just for the course!

Book I'm thinking of getting:

That's interesting. Is it just the Greens or a whole yardage book?

Think it's just the green complexes from what I saw earlier.
 
Yeah, that's what it looks like, but the text has Yardage Book in there somewhere so it was a little confusing. Probably a Stracaline cut and paste job or something. Man that thing looks detailed. Might confuse my simple mind :alien:

Looks like my partna will know those greens. However your only going to have to worry about 3ft putts. #DartThrowing
 
I think they're bent grass. the general rule of thumb is if you think it's breaking left, it will break right. they're slow uphill, and lightning downhill. and if they feel furry to walk on, don't worry, they'll be plenty fast

Will be there April 28th-May 3rd. Counting down the days.
 
I can't wait to see both the links and lakes course, both look fantastic!

The Lakes is without a doubt in my Top 5 favorite courses that I have played.

The pictures make the scenery surround the awesome golf course amazing as well!
 
The green in that picture is monstrous! Could fit 3 - 4 of my home course greens on just what is pictured of that green.

I have witnessed a 5-putt on that green.

Pin placements get fun on that one.

Getting in my head will not work! Haha

I can imagine hitting the correct quadrant of those greens will be crucial.

So excited to tackle these courses, and if it's a top 5 in War Eagle's book that is pretty high praise!
