Taken last April from the turning point on the short par-4 5th.
Now it looks a little different.
You see two bunkers cut into the hillside to the right. There are actually three. The third, just before the higher bunker is about the size of a divot; OK the size of the hood of a car. Nasty little bugger. If you take on these bunkers, you'll have to fly them. If you manage to you'll get a turbo kick that could send you ball onto the green, or to a nice little bunker short left of the green.
As the comparison between the two photos reveal, we have moved a huge amount of material to create the faux hillside that rises up to 7 meters (21 feet). It's primary job is to kill noise from the highway, but it also has a great influence on the strategic choices from the tee.
