    I never thought I would say this but I now think Kiawah is harder to play than Bethpage as a Legend. Wierd, wierd, wierd!

    I believe in real life the course rating for Kiawah from the tips is harder then Bethpage.

    Kiawah

    TOURNAMENT   144/77.3

    Bethpage

    Black Course 140/74.2

    Cheers

    I have played them both in real golf, Kiawah much more than BPB.  From the back tees, Kiawah is tougher although still a more fair course.  BPB with all the rough around the greens and the huge elevation changes has a lot of places that just aren't fair golf shots, Kiawah has none of those.  The green speed seems to have a lot more effect on scoring at Kiawah than BPB, Kiawah has so many small breaks around the holes and BPB is a little more flat with a few exceptions.
