We put it back a little closer to the original place.And the course was a lot more open but the tree planting had already begun - when the original course was windswept and open just like the old Australian. And we put the 18th green back on the ground as it was in 1980 - as opposed to the two elevated versions of Grant and Thomson.

Mac, quick query, when a hole is designed, how many pin placements are designed for? Does it vary from Par 3s to par 5s?Cheers
