MARK NELKE/Press Director of Golf Darrell Hull stands on the new black tees on the 16th hole at The Links Golf Club in Post Falls. To his left is the aiming point for the tee shot, which requires a carry of 256 yards to reach the fairway. From the blacks, 16 is a slight dogleg left. The white tees, which are 372 yards from the hole, are behind him and well uphill, just to the right of the golf carts.

"My personal opinion is our signature hole will become No. 15, our par-3 up the hill that has the pot bunker in front,” Hull said. “From the new black tee that will play 258 (compared to 168 from the white tees, 177 from the blues) ... uphill, pot bunker in front, bunker on the left, and if the wind’s blowing the wrong direction, that’ll play close to 300 yards.”
