Later, I joined one of the 130 members who own the club and our conversation turned to the greens and Jeff Pace. When I told themember that I met Mr. Pace, the first question he asked, "Did you say the greens were slow"?

When I said no, the look of horror left his face and he started to breathe once more.

He shared a story about one of the members at the nineteenth hole who turned to Mr. Pace suggesting the greens were a little slow.

Everyone laughed except Mr. Pace.

The next morning when they started the second day of the tournament the greens were so fast that all you had to do was wave your putter over the ball and it would roll across the green. To this day not one member has mentioned that the greens were slow.

The golf course does not use a lot of water hazards but the 3,141/6379 yard, nine/eighteen hole, 36/72 par course is very challenging with lots of trees, doglegs and very fast greens. The signature hole is #4 a 367 yard, par 4, dogleg right that runs along the Yellowstone river. The narrow fairway has trees on the right and a view of the Sleeping Giant Mountain.

One of the hardest parts of playing this course is focusing on your shots. Take your time, play the course, do not comment on the green speed and above all enjoy the scenery between shots.
