Greywolf Golf Course Hole #14 "Notch" 527-yd Par5 Handicap 4
Greywolf GC:
With its huge granite outcroppings combined with lush fairways, rambling creeks, and magnificent greens, Morgan says he gets a ton of feedback every year. Golfers are blown away by the beauty of the course. Designed by Doug Carrick, Greywolf is considered one of the best new courses in Canada for the way it blends into the environment. We're a pretty tight valley with immense mountains on both sides, Morgan continued, which makes the area amazingly picturesque.
Scoring the CRO:
As other ground rules go, I think we're all on the same page for no OB penalties, treat all as a lateral, or if you re-tee and bomb one, that just counts as your 2nd shot off the tee (and if you put that in the woods, still play the lateral from the 1st), but then from there on out, if you yank one into the trees, take the penalty and drop with a clean view, not behind another tree. But if you're in play behind an obstruction, you have to just play it, punch out (essentially a penalty anyway).
Clearly we don't want to put too much of a strain on the demands of playing well, but in keeping with the nature of the annual tournaments, we need to have something in place. First of all, I would imagine the 2009 CRO outright champion will be determined as usual, by lowest combined score. That I don't really see any way around (however, if I shoot 112 at Stewart Creek and Roscher hits 17 GIR, I may as well stop playing altogether)...but another thought was to have a point system in which you earn points based on play (5pts to daily low score, 1pt/birdie, 3pts/eagle, 1pt/skin, 2pts for long drive (1hole/rd), 2pts for closest to pin (1or2holes/rd)) and in that way you could create a daily winner, basically saying first round is on the loser, next on the next guy ...so that the daily winner has some incentive.

I don't know what you guys are feeling, but I know I am planning on drinking on the course and being an asian tourist with my camera, so I will have fun either way. There will be no club throwing or golf ball chucking unless it's at a wild animal in hopes of preventing my own mauling.
