KCFDC pdga league wandering Wednesday

[MK]

36 out to my old stomping grounds at Shawnee Mission Park to play 20 holes in the wind.  Thanks everyone for coming out!  It was nice to see everyone and play a round with a couple guys I don't play with often.

Next week, we will finish the first 7 week session at Cliff Drive with the City of Fountains layout, if I can get Scott Reek to work with Jack Lowe, Derrick Holt, or Drew D. Neitzel to change the baskets by Wednesday.  I know it's GBO week, but I'll be running league at Cliff Drive!

See ya Wednesday in Smithville!

[MK]

Tomorrow night the KCFDC traveling pdga league is traveling to Smithville to challenge Blackthorn DGC!

We will be playing the Paradise Diamond set up.  See the attached map for hole distances and OB.

The text version with some explanations:

1.  489' tall grass and road OB
2.  294' road long OB
3.  228' water OB
4.  297' road left (not seen on map) and water OB
5.  186' water, road OB
6.  216' road, water (not seen on map) OB
7.  225' road, water OB
8.  216' road OB, water casual
9.  312' road, water OB
10.  336' road on right of pond OB, pond OB. If OB on drive, proceed to DZ.  OB shots after drive, follow usual OB rules
11.  237' road OB
12.  645' par 4 road OB
13.  363' tall grass, road OB
14.  660' par 4 road long OB
15.  615' par 4 road, water OB.  Mando right of tree.  Re-tee if you miss the mando.
16.  610' par 4 water, road OB.  If other OB is marked as on the map, we will play it.  Otherwise just the water left.
17.  300' water, road OB and OB long if marked, otherwise just road, water.
18.  411' water ONLY is OB. Road right us safe.

If I say road is OB, assume road and OVER.  The map doesn't look like road and over, but it is road and over.

I don't know when Scott Reek will be out to mark OB, so on 1 and 13 play tall grass OB to the best of your ability if it hasn't been marked.  Too close to call is safe. 

All other tall grass is safe.

$5 for KCFDC members and  $6 for non-members.  Add a buck for the ace fund.

Sign up at 530 tee at 600.

See ya tomorrow in Smithville!
