I have read your reviews for a few other courses before playing and I have found them to be very beneficial. I am playing Erin Hills tomorrow and am greatful that you have reviewed this course. Thanks and keep them coming. (Note: I will be on the look out for one of your balls). Dan,

Thanks for posting this article on Erin Hills. I played there very recently and was really interested in your review. Most reviews are long on opinion and short on facts. This review, in my humble opinion, has the opposite problem: it's more of a hole-by-hole summary than a review. I can get a summary from Erin Hills' website. I wanted to read what you thought about it, but other than mentioning the interesting bunkering and a couple of views on the course, I didn't get your review of the conditions, the service, the value. Thanks again for posting! Steve Hi Dan,

In 2008 they used this hole during the USGA Womens Amateur Public Links Championship, but then in preparation for the 2011 USGA Mens Amateur they removed that green and are reworking old 8 to be #7, and old 9 became #8 (the #1 handicap hole) and the par 3 "bye hole" is now the well guarded ninth hole. They closed a month early last year and opened two months late this year just to start all the renovations needed for the 2011 US Amateur and to impress the USGA in their bid to get the 2017 US Open. From what I saw this week I would agree with Steve Stricker in saying that the course is worthy of getting a US Open - soon! me again — Reply to Jon Steffen’s question about the blind par three that was the seventh hole originally — Yes they have now removed that green at the behest of the USGA!

So my golf buddy Bob and I just played Erin Hills yesterday (10/1) and found your nice long hole by hole review GREAT!! The only thing I can add is that Erin Hills has yet to allow Sky Caddie to map their course, so we employed a forecaddie for our round and that was invaluable to the first time visitor - great local knowledge saved us from many bunkers and therefore saved stokes too! As Mr. Lang says "Golf is a journey" so have a great one, and we look forward to your next review.

Did they completely remove that blind hole? Did they mention anything about it?
