May 17th C-Tier. Grand Opening - 27 Holes at Winter Park!

[superberry]

We're hosting a C-Tier on Sunday May 17th to celebrate our grand opening 27-hole layout. One round of 27 holes and an afternoon round of 18, custom stamped player pack discs, fundraiser sale discs, and cheap discs from past years for sale.

Here is a link to the registration form...

The brand new course is open and ready to play. We've installed some additional loops of wooded holes showcasing more of the natural features of the park including some cool washouts, steep ravines, and wooded ridges and valleys. The rough on these new holes can still take you down quick because it has yet to be broken in. Stay on target and be crisp with your putting because EVERY new green is risky.

Winter Park is guranteed to test all your skills and showcase some of the most unique terrain and features in all of the state!

Mayhem Open is the Saturday before. Get out and partake in the Mayhem Saturday, and then head up for a new experience at Winter Park on Sunday.

Be sure to get in on this action! The 2009 Kewaunne Open (aka KO) is sure to be just that. A knockout - at least in the sense that the course and tournament play is sure to knock you out, or at least beat you down a little. With a 27 hole morning round and another 18 in the afternoon, I'm sure you will all be feeling the impacts come Sunday night.

I'll do my best to get everyone on and off the course and back into their Sunday night comfort zones ASAP!

PRAY for good weather! No rain for a few days prior, no wind, and some warm sunshine will be more than welcome for this event. (Did you hear that Mother Nature?)

Just shy of two dozen pre-registered players thus far, and for a Sunday C-Tier, I'm thinking word of mouth about this challenging and scenic course is what is driving in those interested players.

Don't forget, this is one of WI's most scenic, challenging, and balanced courses! Not too many parks showcase the 100' elevation change, make their way up and down the hills 6 times during one round, have a meandering creek, ponds, 400' bombers, 700' downhills, 300' narrow wooded tunnels, dangerously risky greens, and require such a balanced shot selection from your bag.

HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!!!!!

Vils and I played the course yesterday. It's not for the meek and timid. Strong legs and ankles are a must. No matter what the weather I'd wear some sort of pants as the rough can be thorny. My legs and shins are killing me today. Thank goodness for hot tubs!!

Exactly! The rough is horrible, you MUST be accurate, both with distance and aim. Say some thanks that the tourney is in May and not the end of July or the rough would be 5x worse and there would be thousands of bugs!

I have never tried to fool anyone, and will never advertise this as a walk in the park. You play Winter when you want challenge and something different.

Hope y'all weren't discouraged and I hope to see you out next Sunday!

You are correct. It is a challenge. About 3/4 of the way through the 27 holes all I wanted was to be air lifted out of the hole I was in. It sure is different. Next time, there probably will be a next time, I won't play a round in Manitowoc before playing mountain climber. Fresh legs are a must if you're going to play this course!!

Good luck this weekend. Family obligations prevent me from coming and hurting myself again.

If you have not prepaid yet, you will need to get your registration in the mail before noon today, or chances are I may not see it by Saturday. I will then need to collect cash from you at the tournament and will return your check when I do get it.

Your other option would be to make it out on Saturday (for your practice round) and pay in cash. I will be out there with others performing some work and hopefully getting in a round. If you see a large black Ford pickup, I'm there - 920-309-2195 (cell) - you could leave your registrations in my truck too.

We will be at the course set up by the practice basket by 730 (or inside the large gold building right off the road if weather is windy or rainy).

Registration will close promptly at 830 so I can get the meeting going and have everyone tee off by 9.

I think the 27 hole round may take a while and I want to get everyone home at a reasonable time. Bring some snacks or even lunch to have during Round 1! Just 1-hr will be allotted between last card of Rd 1, and start of Rd 2.
