SSA for Buffalo Trace?

[Daniel]

I'm just looking for a general idea of an SSA round at BT. I've seen the tourney results, but because of added holes, it throws it off. Jeremy thought -6 or -7...just curious.

Thoughts?

[Adam]

I'd say that's about right. I'm less qualified to talk about SSA than Jeremy, but my guess would be -7 or -8 on 19 holes.

[Daniel]

I was personally thinking -6, as some of those holes are mightly unfriendly...

[Adam]

Yeah it's tough to tell. It could go either way but I was thinking the opportunity is definitely there to birdie holes 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 15, 17, and 18. That's -12 and there are birdie possibilities on some of the others but they aren't as easy.

I say this like it's so easy, but my best round out there is only a -6. It's easy to get in trouble and take bogeys out there.


Now that Shawn hit a birdie on hole 19 last week, every hole on the course has been birdied.

[Daniel]

Kinda funny, but I missed #18 both rounds and hit #16 both rounds! That was probably one of the easiest holes for me. Weird.

Seeing that the course record for 19 is -11, I'd still say -6. It is still -11, right?

(I want that record, darn it! That last round of -8 with a bogey and missing 9, 15, and 18 is eating at me...)

I bounced a 50 foot putt off the left side of the chains today for two. Kinda frustrating round though.

Yeah, that would have been a sweet deuce to start the day!

(I still say my second round drive on #19 was closer... j/k!)

Great to get to play a round with you guys today!

I've gotten #19 before. My drive was about 25 ft past the basket

Wow! Great shot, definitely.
