Halfway considering coming down for this - only issue would be having to play blind (well I would walk the course saturday morning and then head over to the other course to see / play saturday)

Based on the past, looks like great fields and great money, which makes me want to travel.

However, not knowing the courses would be a disadvantage. Are they courses were I could get away with not playing them before hand?

Roswell will require some practice to see the lines. It won't take you more than an hour to play it if you dont go into the woods.(good luck)

Central is pretty straight forward.

Thanks Craig.

You've been up my way. Cedar Hills is my home course - how is Roswell compared to that?

Roswell is kind of like Reedy in Charlotte. It's a great course, lots of woods, but there are lines on every hole. Some are easy to see and the hole is pretty easy to see what you need to do, but there are a few out there where it helps to throw some to see what happens before it starts. If you could hook up with a local to walk the course it would proably be a huge advantage, but not completely necessary.

gotcha - I'm usually pretty good on courses like that, esp. if most shots are midrange shots.

Cedar Hills is a little more open than ERP due to the length of time it's be trampled in. One practice round should help you out, since your used to the woods it should be no big transition.

Good info - taking that Friday off and leaving here early Friday morning so we will get a chance to see the courses Friday.

Really excited to make it down to ATL!
