French Creek -- saturday?   Message List

Re: [Fiends] French Creek -- saturday?

I played most of the new layout, and yes it's got some very serious
signature holes that are outstanding. Paired with this are the worst tee
boxes on the east coast. There is no comparison to IHs gorgeous tees. If
French Creek can get concrete, or fly mats, or even some
basic maintenance on the exiting tees.....

While both new courses are *spectacular* there is a huge difference in par, scoring, and challenge. From all long tees to long pins, the SSA at Iron Hill is...
