you could have eaten off the freaking fairways at Keswick, and the rest of the course was better than that...pretty sweet

Keswick fairways are a new seasonal grass called latitude 36 and our super thinks its a game changer. It was awesome. The greens there are 007, I think. They spent 11 million on renovation by Pete Dye. I played before the reno and after. I don't remember one hole from before. Completely changed.

Seems like the 9th hole from the back tees was a dog leg up that hill of about 450. Now it's a 330 yd short par 4. I think the hole is now where the dog leg started.
