    alosso:

    Nice perspectives, YJ!

    I played the 18 holes one by one, -2 from the front tees, enjoyed the crooked course and the nice views (wonder which creek is there close to the closing holes).

    I can't wait to play 9 or 18 holes uninterrupted - it's still blocked.

    One item left me dumbstruck:

    On the describing pages of the holes, I found this:

    The Olympic Club Recent Top Scores on WGT
    40         May 02     95W...
    49         May 02     bigj...
    43         May 02     PhilM...

    (anonymised by me)

    These are real WGT players like you and me (?) - how could they pass the guards and play!?!

    maybe they are the beta, beta testers. lol

    Possibly it was available temporarily before they got the settings right.

    Just played the first. If it's a 500 yard par 4 off the hack tees... I only just reached the green in 2 with a G20 driver.

    Plays really long imo. Hard to get close when you're always hitting 3W or 3I into the green. I'm not even on the legend tees either.

    Great course with lots of "GOTCHA" opportunities in the form of trees reaching out and batting your ball down. Thankfully they isnt much water to lose your ball into.

    Ran around it first time to the tune of 28 from legend tees.


    Before sure if you get on the course to send "challenges" to all your friends so they can  play the course as well.

    What a well kept secret this one is.

    Much easier off the legend tees :)

    Anyone know if the proshop will start selling these?  They could make a mint.
