Wife, Cameron and I are headed over there around 10:30. That puts us on hole 1 at 11:00.

How about Lizard Lagoon?

2 aces on hole 3, before 16 is hit. I never would have bet that.


Way to go Young Bud.

So a few of headed over there yesterday for a round.

Here are some ideas for changes before they pour teepads if they ever do.


Hole 1 Pretty good. If you play from the right side of the tee, it is no gimmie.

Hole 2 I like where the tee pad is now. I do think it would be more fun and better hole if the basket was moved a little longer. Closer to where 3 tees from now.

Hole 3 Pretty good.

Hole 4 Cool hole, but the fairway is pretty narrow.

Hole 5 Also a cool hole, but the fairway is pretty narrow.

Hole 6 Should tee off farther back. Then more people would get stuck behind the cedars and have a tougher 3.

Hole 7 Cool hole! The straight shot it the only way to get a 2. Could turn into a 4 pretty quick.

Hole 8 Longest hole on the course.

Hole 9 Pretty good short hole

Hole 10 Cool hole

Hole 11 The tee could be moved back a little. Making it harder to shot the gap made by the trees.

Hole 12 I think it would be more fun to tee off closer to 11's basket. It would also give you another shot.

Hole 13 Pretty cool hole.

Hole 14 Cool little short hole

Hole 15 Pretty cool hole.

Hole 16 This hole ruins the back 9. I think the basket needs to be moved to the East! Past the big trees and close to the flood area by the tracks. Make it #7 opposite brother.

Hole 17 Should play from in the Open field to where 16's bucket is now. The last 2 changes would make the back 9 play 2 strokes tougher.

Hole 18 walk across the road, play from somewhere in 17's fairway to 18's basket.


That would be moving 1 basket for sure, and the course would be much better.


I know some of the Wellington boys will not be open to change. I just wanted to add my 2 cents. I would like to see you tweek and make minor changes before the tees go in, and the course is set forever.


I will call Roy if you need me to.

I think some change would be good.

I would like to see the coarse get finished, and just asking them to change because its not done, might be the right door to knock on.

I like the idea for hole 6.

Hole 11, hmmmmmm

Hole 12, not sure where you mean, the pad will have to be far enough from the round about so people dont park on it!

Hole 16, something definitely needs to be done. Trees put in the way, tunnel or move it!

Hole 17, will definitely need to be changed if 16 is moved.

Hole 18, need to look at that again

Any other opinions?

Wellington has some Road Warriors this year. You boys have been kicking some butt and taking some names at the first 2 normal KDGA stops.


We have Brian, Chuck and Scooter in the KDGA now. We need to get a couple of you other boys to sign-up.
