I like this course. Narrow. If you miss the snap off the tee, there's a good chance for water or sand.
Actually, it was #12 that got me. I thought a 3-metal would be perfect for hitting the island. Just the slightest push put me in the drink and rehit was the only good option.
I’ve not decided yet what to do on that hole when I play champ. I’ll have to be feeling really confident with the snap to go for it. Probably will on round 1 and see
In the end I went for the island in all 4 rounds. Got lucky I guess as I missed the snap on 3 of the rounds and each time ended on the river bank instead of in the water. Chipped out and managed a par each time when it could have been so much worse.
However, I distinctly recall a putt on one of these greens (forget which one) that the grid lines showed the putt starting left and when I hit it (perfect snap), it went a little right instead, and of course, I missed the putt. Mentally noted but immediately disregarded it as one of those Links anomalies.
