This course has been talked about since the land was purchased several years ago (its already hosting the 2008 U.S. Women's Amateur Public Links Championship and the course doesn't even open until August 1). Talk about some serious length for a course (7800+ from the Black tees!). $150 green fees.

I don't mind stepping back to the tips usually, but 7800 + ? Ouch!

From the JSOnline article, "Erin Hills recently was laser-measured and rated by the Wisconsin State Golf Association and the numbers are staggering. From the tips, it measures 8,266 yards. The course rating, which reflects the score a scratch handicap golfer would be expected to shoot on his best day, is 79.9."

    • Sure, but how was your alignment? 🙂 Day 53 - 2024-11-22 Mirror work after getting back home. Wife is a superstar for her career/job/whatever.
    • I would say your back nine is the second nine you play that day. It's part of what makes getting some of those holes tougher. Or, if 18 holes are played pretty often, out of A, B, and C, and you often play A and C, A is the front and C is the back, regardless of the order you play them in. That way not birdieing C #7 isn't overcome by birdieing the easier A #7 on a day you played it C-A instead of A-C. But, at the end of the day, nobody really cares except yourself.
