Pinball Alley

 That is my unofficial name for #7 Mountain now that it has been planted with 24 Coast live oak trees.  The trees were finalized this past Friday and it really makes you think a little differently on this hole.  What was once an easy par 5 to cut the corner on now involves a little risk/ reward.  More thought is also involved for the shorter hitters like myself because you don't want to end up behind the trees as well.

Next week we will scarify the 'highway' and begin to place the fence around the area.  By next weekend we hope to have everything wrapped up on 7/8 Mountain.

7 Mountain Course Improvement



The picture to the left shows the style of fence we will be installing around the hillside between 7 & 8 Mountain.  We will be doing 6 or 7 sections of fence with an 18" gap between each section.  We will also be planting more trees along the hillside. This area has become a popular highway of sorts and the cart traffic has really made it an eyesore.  The fence will keep the carts out and we will hopefully be able to regain the beauty it once had. It should also help make it into a legitimate par 5 by not being able to cut the corner anymore.  We hope to have this work complete within the next three weeks.
