Mike, I'm so glad you enjoyed the course, and thanks for all the kind words. Let me offer you a different option on Hole #4 -- you can look at it next time you're there. There is an aggressive way to play the hole, which sounds like the way you went, and there's a more patient way. I posted a picture of tee sign with the two "patient route" landing areas highlighted.

The drive is actually pretty wide, but you have not go for too much. The landing area is actually quite generous. I'll look up the actually size and get that to you later. Second shot is also tight but fair, as is the third shot. As you say, the "eagle" route is very hard and requires two great shots to get to the pin in two. I would maintain that the landing area on that route is a bit bigger than you describe, but it is tough, and if you miss it, you'll be scrambling for sure. It's not quite all-or-nothing, as I built in some PITTSBOROS, but I agree it is very difficult, which is what it's meant to be. I'll get you more info in another venue. But thanks again for your input and the kind words! --John
