"It is visually stunning and extremely playable with a wonderful variety of strategic holes, settings and experiences. If we had to start from scratch again today, we could only hope to match the course we have produced at Pronghorn." Following Fazio's presentation, guests were treated to lunch, tours of the Clubhouse and other activities. In the evening, golf trick artist Craig Hocknull performed followed by a gourmet picnic dinner on the event lawn with music entertainment by renowned jazz artist Kenny G.
