I have a question after playing #2 Ravines course at Cog Hill.

There is a sign for hole 19 and it also appears on the scorecard.

[I don't mean the 19th hole where you have a few drinks smoke cigars and tell lies]

My question is what is this for ?

The bunkering is more in line with the design of #4.

Is this meant as a playoff hole or a practice hole ?

Settling bets, typically. I know of a few courses around here that have a 19th hole.

I've played there a bunch and have always used it as a money hole, or a playoff if we're playing match play. It's set up nice for closest to the pin, or low score, or however you want to play it for a few bucks. And really, who can complain about a free hole? It also borders Dubsdread hole 18, so it's the galley area when the PGA is in town.

Ooh good question. A bit off topic, but I'm playing there in 2 weeks. What did you think - was it your first time?

I love course #2. Scenic, not too long, and challenging. It's very wooded once you get past the first 2-3 holes, and lots of elevation changes. Great course for the price
