played 8/13, afternoon replay after bayonet in the am. interesting design philosophy - forgiving off the tee, but greens are heavily defended, with difficult runups, and multiple tiers with lots of movement that bring 3 putts into play at > 15 feet or so. has a gaudy feel to it. certainly the fingered bunkers are eye candy, must be a b***h to maintain. same comment as bayonet about the greens - didn't roll as pure as i'd expect bentgrass to roll, but i also wouldn't be surprised if they have not been able to keep poa out given how prevalent it is here. still, overall a very solid track, and replay rate of $55 makes it a good deal. afternoon brings the wind into play, but it was manageable that day (1/2 to 1 club at most).
