Not a "new" course update, but I got out to River Bends today and wow was I surprised! There has been a ton of work done on the course. There are now tee posts and next tee posts everywhere. Navigation is no longer a nightmare! The fairways were mowed too! It's probably the first time that I've ever seen the fairways mowed. The course will still suck in the wet months and after a bunch of rain, but overall, I'm back to really loving this course
I updated my review of the course from 2010. I give River Bends an absolute solid 4 rating now. The redesign is really good. I'm almost wondering if the course should get a new page since it was redesigned, had holes added, subtracted, and moved. The page was updated with more holes and pictures last year, but the changes and improvements are vast.
