| Below you will find the two pictures that are morphed in
the movie above. The "old" picture was taken sometime in the early
1980's, probably around 1983-84, the newer picture just a couple years ago.
I couldn't do an exact morph, as the two photos weren't taken at the exact
same location, but they are close enough to demonstrate some of the changes
that have taken place. There are a number of noticeable
differences in the 16th & 17th holes. In the old picture, notice that the lake is much smaller than it is today. The line of trees and brush that you see in the old picture is actually part of the drainage ditch (creek?) that crossed below the dam. When the lake was expanded in the winter of 1987/88 it took in all of the area that was previously the dam and the creek. You can also see the cart path crossing the creek in the extreme right
side of the old picture. This is much closer to the tee than where the
creek presently crosses the fairway. My best guess is that this path
was just a few yards past the willow tree that is there today. In
fact, the willow tree would be very near the same location as the sycamore
trees are in the old picture.
