Daz, I suppose, you'll play at the new Bethpage Black. So most of us playing also at OWGC, then we're playing 8 rounds there. Isn't it too much?

Yes, that is my intention.
You could always ask OWGC to select another venue, lol.
I guess KISS will be using it too, so anyone who plays there will be getting overdosed on Bethpage Black.
There is no obligation to play in the US Open at the Offline Tour, so I will simply leave it to the members to decide for themselves whether they play or not if they feel they are playing too many times at the same venue due to subscribing to multiple offline tours..

Not only will I probably overdose on this course by playing it here and at OWGT and KISS and a few others but be prepared for rounds in the 35 minute+ range from long renderings similar to all the other HD courses. I played the first round and one hole is a monster 546 yard par 4. Several holes it is near impossible to keep it on the green with mod fast and with many bunkers hugging the front you have a choice of playing a bunker shot from them or a short sided chip from US rough on the back side of the green. Making par for 18 is a good score as it should be for the US Open. I couldnt imagine this at firm fast unless you move the tees forward. Spectacular course right up there with Augusta.

No doubt we'll be in for some of that at OWGC, but with no forward tees, lol.
