Agree. You can try spin it however you want but with this change Kings Walk is the only actual golf course in GF. 
 

Don’t get me wrong, there’s a place for courses like Lincoln, but GF only having 1 legit public course is pretty sad. 

Not sure why you'd exclude Valley? Solid course and closer to half of Grand Forks than King's Walk is. 

I don't think there's near the appetite for a 4th 18 hole course in town when you count Valley and Grand Forks Country Club. 

The changes to Ray Richards aren't significant enough to make that big of a difference to go from "legit" to not. They aren't turning it into a par 3 course.

The final course re-routing that is getting built is way better than the first option showed in public. So, it could have been worse.

Is this the final design?

Hearing they are considering building in inflatable dome to the West of Mckvey and West. Would have a turf and walking track for students

Agreed, the original 18 was a really fun course.
New 9 has come in pretty nice the last couple years as the trees have grown. Like it a lot more than I used to.
Guessing cost + space is why they didn't do a completely new 18.

wonder if there are agreements if land is needed to do all 18 over there later?
