General Manager Jeff Bruce introduced you to the personalities of the front nine; now he describes Redstone’s back nine:
“The front nine is Dr. Jekyll to the back nine’s Mr. Hyde. The front nine is a little more subdued; it’s flatter, with open tee shots, and everything is laid out for you to score. The back nine is Mr. Hyde; you’re basically hiding on every hole, since it’s cut out of the mountainside, and tee shots are a very important part of the game. Even though there are a few tougher sections, they’re there to improve your game while you enjoy the incredible scenery. It’s all about good times and great golf!”
