The fairway does also, leaving golfers with uneven stances even if their ball was driven right down the middle. Fairway bunkers right and left place a premium on driving accuracy, and bunkers to the right of the green and a swale to the left leave little margin for miscue on the approach. Imagine trying to hit a dart from 170 yards to win the tournament with ten of thousands of people watching during the final round of the Canon Greater Hartford Open. It s hard enough with just the other members of your foursome standing by. The ACSP promotes ecologically sound land management and the conservation of our natural resources.

The River Highlands course was not always the gallery-friendly venue viewers experience today. The original piece of property was designed in 1928 and was known then as Edgewood Country Club. The Greater Hartford Jaycees, who run the GHO, hired Pete Dye to come to Connecticut and build a championship course to host the event. Instead of building a new course, Dye recognized the potential the property that housed Edgewood CC possessed and decided to redesign the existing course.
