We played 9 holes today at West city park in Festus and will be out working on the course tomorrow if someone wants to help or a guided tour.

This west city park course is less than 1 year old and is developing nicely.
Once we get concrete tees and few more ares cleaned up its gonna be one of the best in the midwest.
The creek comes into play on 7 holes and the big #$*&$! lake on 9 and 18.

There is elevation change, Asmall pine forrest, some think woods and many long open bombers.
A true par 70 and every single hole can be birdied or bogied, a great course. A true risk reward on nearly every holes and not just big D risk. In fact the bigger the D the more the trouble you can get in on a lot of holes.

I shouldnt have to say much about Jefferson Barracks, its in a lot of playes top 10 courses and is a pictursque course with 100 year old trees and the toughest greens around. The course is always in great shapeThanks to Ron and amrk and the JB homies)and the layout will be based on flow, about 40% long 40-% medium and 20% short ( mostly the shorter holes are in a placemet) so lots of birdies can be made)!!

Out doing some clean up to West city in Festus today.
We played a round today from the long tees and wound up only getting in 17 holes, Justin was -5, Nikko -4 Schmidt and I -3. 18 is a tough par 5, not realy a good birdie hole and you can surely drop it in the drink and make bogey.
A 1000 rated round should be around -5 from the longs and -10 from the shorts. ( par 70)
Nobody was putting that well today, but we threw a hella lotta long straight drives with the new infernos.
They all seemd to be the same stability for each and every one of us and we all have a little different power,rotation and trajectory. This disc is as good as any disc ever made and we will be giving them away in the players packs at the Gateway open.

Anyone that is thinking about coming this weekend that needs a place to stay should call or email me so I can get you hooked up!

Plenty of laces to stay for free if anyones coming from out of town,
.
Festus is all mowed and ,marked very well. Eevery single green and Fairway has been really cleaned up.
JB is always nice, I wish I would have promoted this event more and earlier, it looks like a wizard and an Inferno in the players package plus 2 great courses.

Doesnt look like I am going to make it down, first week of school bunch of homework, a very tiring week at work, my local club event, and a severe lack of money did me in....
