We hope all of the participants in Saturday's Superintendent's Revenge had a good time. This was the first time we were able to get this event pulled together, but hopefully it will not be the last of these.
If you felt that the pin placements were over the top, please direct your complaints to the Pro Shop staff, as they were the ones who chose these 18 never before used locations. While there is no such thing as an "illegal pin placement" there are USGA recommendations--clearly none of which were followed.
Bob and Brett may have chosen the pins, but the Grounds Department added their touch with some obstacles, misleading distances and more. Let's face it, you just don't see an irrigation controller in the middle of a green too often.
We even included a few new diminutive water hazards on #16. If your ball missed the hole, it was off the green and quite possibly wet.
After reviewing some of the surprisingly low scores that were posted, we may just have toughen things up a bit for next year!
