Are we playing the red mandos for this event? Thank you!

every round?

Only for Open Boyd. Red Mandos are used for the long layout.

It's all good. We should all play them. #4 is the only one that makes me antsy : )

Body. Throw a forehand park city

I get it, I just think that #4 is a fabulous hole without mandos. The left line is the obvious fairway.

I had not looked at the layouts being played by each division, I guess I had assumed we would all play the same.

Couldn't agree more Jeremy, I think a few of the mandos actually take away from the design of the hole and the fact that multiple throws or shots are available (risk/reward). I can see where mandos are necessary because we don't want people throwing over adjacent fairways and possibly putt ... more

The hole 4 mando is not in play this year. All other mandos besides the double mando on Hole 7 are only there for safety purposes.

Sounds great Brady, thank you and looking forward to the weekend!

Jeremy Boyd   August 9, 2019 at 2:15pm

I am too. Nikiski will make for an awesome destination weekend!
