What should I expect? How is the condition of the course? Some online reviews I read from about 3 weeks ago said the greens were in crappy shape.

Give me some insight...

Haven't played in a month or so


Greens were sketchy back then but the rest of the course was in great shape


Greens should be coming around by now

Is it a tough course, say in comparison to LSU/Webb/Dumas?

It's not too hard


Not a very long course at all

Got some tough holes though, especially on the back 9

#12 into the wind can DIAF.

They really needed to make #11 a Par 4 and #12 a Par 5 with it dogleging left over the creek because I hate that tee shot into the wind.

Is there a site somewhere where I can see a map of the course? It isn't on the BREC site, of course.

I like 11


I've eagled it several times and it may have been my first par5 eagle if I remember correctly

12's tee shot is knee knocker

If you look at it on Google Maps, #1 is to the right (east) of the range.

18 is to the left (west) of the range.

I'll check it out. I typically play from the back tees at Webb...and the yardage seems to be almost equal to blue at Beaver Creek...both right at 6300..so I guess Blues it will be.

In reality (from the tips):

11 and 12 play like 4.5's


So my goal on those two is a combination of 9.

Nevermind. Goofy as hole 1.
