I was so happy to hear that they are "completely" redoing Silver Lake until I heard that they are making no changes except re-sodding the entire golf course.

What a wast of money. That course was terribly built and is a bad layout. Numerous trees need to be removed and many holes need to be re-designed. If they don't do that, they're going to be redoing it in another few years.
Well here's a hole by hole at Silver Lake for everyone's look-see
