  We’ve seen Torrey Pines, St Andrews, and (woot woot) Par 5’s.   Fun so far, even though a top team slaughtered us at Andy’s during the night.

  Obviously hoping for Par 5’s a few more times.  One of my guys got a blue pass 340 there and another one got a DE on the first hole.   I like to see my people have fun, and the VF greens and reasonable wind is helping make that happen for all tiers.

  Cheers to you and yours!

  Hi AD , we have had congressional B9, par 5 and Oakmont F9 . It seems to me , par fives which are lovely to play make the clash a bit unfair , depending just on how many times you get it . Perhaps WGT could ensure the same number of draws of it , or limit it to twice . Doesn’t actually make much difference to me , but I bet the chasing group at the top would like to see an even playing field.

  I always look out for your clash post now.... we also had the par 5s.. but while I was sleeping lol.. One of our top players posted the most astonishing clash card I've seen... 15 under on the par 5s.. with an SP for 372 points.. and it was to pinch a win in a hard fought match... I think we would all like to buy him beers lol

  I agree these conditions are quite good for everyone to have some fun.. we had a couple of tough matches in a row but are doing pretty well at 5/2 win loss so far.. here is our course & match rundown so far.
