Shan, Stew, Peanut, and I laid out the course today. It will be a great course for everyday play. The parks department will have the final say if everything is cool. If it doesn't pass, we may have a few problems getting 18 quality holes in the ground.


The way it is now, a few temp. baskets and few temp. tees and it will be BAD A$$. We wanted to try and avoid making it so hard that all the newbies would get frustrated.

Look for Wellington to be on the map, by the end of next month.

Cool beans.

How many of the holes were the same as what we played a few months ago? Will there be any possibilities for expanding to pro and am tees?

What has the city agreed to pay for so far?

This is a nice park. It's great you guys followed though to make this happen.

Did he have his hearing aid turned up? Was he wearing daisy dukes and pink tank top? Did he have on 15 braclets, 3 anklets, and a class ring?
Were his legs waxed and his hair french braided. If not...it wasn't him :lol:

Very few of them are the same.

Shan, Stew, and Peanuts company donated all the money.

The Glass Foundation (Tect Corp owners) donated all the money we need to put in 18 Innova Discatchers,18 tee signs, and 18 concrete pads.
The head of the parks department said that the pads will probably not be done until this summer, but the baskets should be in the ground in a week or so.The baskets should be here buy the end of next week.The parks dept. fellow only had a problem with a couple of the holes, but this course should still be a very cool course.

That is just Huge! How often does a company donate an entire course?

Shan is right, it will be a cool course.

When we have a tourney there, it is even going to be more kick butt.

There are some really cool holes, that we couldn't layout for everyday use. The parks dept. will close off the park, and let us have the entire thing for a tourney.

That means

A kick butt but par 5, that will have water on the right side for 2/3 of the hole, and then water on both sides for the final 1/3.

There is a great tunnel shot, that is in a very busy part of the park.

A picture perfect anhyzer that will play over 1 corner of the pond. It will have branches that hang out over the water and kill bad shots.

The boat ramp hole will be one of everyones favorites. A bomb anhyzer over a river, for a shot at a 3, or the safe around the bend shot for a look at a 3 or 4 if played perfect.

When we get ready for a tourney, it is going to be a must play.

Jeremy Stewart and Jeremy Niblack from Wellington deserve most of the credit on this thing.They have done a great job on everything.





We can't forget about everything that LIZARD did.Him moving to ICT was the best thing for this course.His solicitation was going nowhere, although he probably would have gotten the $$$ together in a couple decades :?

That's awesome. Are there any water shots on the permanent course or did you have to stay away from that area of the park?
