Shot these Sun. at Mariana Butte, Loveland CO. Fun day out with the folks on a beautiful course. It winds through a luxury development situated around a series of buttes. Two of the par 3's are actually on and below the butte, the elevated tees are very high. One was playing 172 yds and I hit a very soft 48* wedge that landed on the green. I can't find my pics of that hole but I got a few of the shorter par three on the other side. Took one from the side of the green looking back up at my Mom on the red tee.

A couple of the holes on the back are right on the river and you can see where the river was once much higher than it is now. The rock formations on the sides of the holes are smooth from being part of the previous river bed. Those played narrow with the fairway between the river and the rocks and hills, a few holes required accuracy to hit through the slots from the tee. Almost felt like playing three different courses. The front starts out park style then you wind into the desert like buttes and down along the river where it gets very lush and dense.

Beautiful September Sunday in Philly....from 11 green at WVCC.

That club is gorgeous... what's up with the 235-241yd par 3 hole #4?  Description?  Is 235 really the closest tee box?

That is about it. The tee box is behind a creek and if we built a tee box on the other side of the creek it would totally change the character of the hole. There is a forward tee from about 185 for women and another at about 160 for juniors.

Here is Indianwood.  I took these photos During the Senior Open last year.  I included some non course shots because I thought you would find them interesting.

    • If he had to hit over the bunker, I'm guessing he was further from the hole, although "in front of" implies the opposite.  If that's right, that may have been the right spot for penalty relief, a single PS.
    • Day 52. Trying to work on hard pan lie pitching in the rain in the yard. 
    • Did you look up any Rules before posting here? What did you learn or find? You don't get to drop (or place) closer to the hole. 16.1(c) deals with relief for Abnormal Course Conditions in bunkers. You're granted free relief for: Since you say the bunker was basically entirely full of water, you likely wouldn't get complete relief, so for free (no penalty strokes), you are entitled to "maximum available" relief. If there's a spot in the back of the bunker away from the hole where the water is the shallowest, then you can drop there. If you don't like any of those options, you can take a penalty stroke and drop out of the bunker, behind it: You seem to have played from a wrong place (nearer to the hole) and thus likely should be penalized two strokes. It doesn't sound like a serious breach, at least.
    • I feel that the stock grips on my Wilson D9's are a little thin.  The grips on my other clubs (purchased used online and sold by me a couple months ago) were Golf Pride and they looked like the wrapped version.  I will say they felt like they had a little more cushion.  I don't have particularly large hands.  Did the grips on my other clubs have more tape or was just a better feeling softer grip?  I have no idea.  Well, any brands you would recommend that have a softer feel? 
    • So this situation happened. A bunker in front of the green was full of water. My ball was underwater in the very back of the bunker furthest from the green. There was a small patch on the front upslope of the bunker nearest the green that theoretically could have been used to hit from if the ball was placed.  A drop would just roll back into the water. And this was the only part of the bunker you might be able to get a stance without standing in water. So my question is do you hit from that small front slope even though you would have to move the ball 6-7 closer to the pin? Or do you drop outside the bunker making sure you are no closer to the pin? I dropped in front of the bunker, so I had to chip over the whole bunker. Was this the right call? Also could I have moved it latterly outside the bunker, although this wouldn’t have made much difference as my ball was pretty much as far back in the bunker as you could be away from the hole.
