Post suggestion on improving the golf holes at Endicott.

Hole 12 C pin goin further back down the path? Where it is now is becoming easier.

flip 13 or 14 around so you're not walking so much in the opposite direction.

/yes, i'm reaching here. endicott is perfectly fine the way it is.

ok, maybe dig a trench so a porta-john can be put in at 8?

Ok I didn't get to play Endicott in the 2010 St. Louis Open but I play there all the time and have been there recently. I did get a chance to meet Tim who has done a lot of work at Endicott. Tim you are the man.

Here is my 2 cents on what we can do to improve the course. Not improve the walk from one hole to another. Hole 5 I feel could use some well placed tress to separate this hole from hole 6. Many time the drive on 5 ends up in 6's fairway. Also, with the lost trees on 5 it just makes sence to play the A placement now.

I'd like to see trees planted to take away the hyzer shot on hole 10. It was never designed for a hyzer.

The C placement on hole 15 is just wrong. The good thing is I rarely see it used.

I also don't like the line the fairway with wood. It make look cool, but all this does is offer a backstop for your bad drive to hit and keep it in the fairway. This really comes into play if your rolling.

I'm told the trees are coming in the fall.

Tim & Clang, are we getting trees to plant at Endicott?
