It had a very large tree just off-center to the right at the 375 yard mark and a considerable bunker to the left, making for some very interesting approach shots. They removed the tree, opened up the fairway, shrunk the bunker, shortened the hole and turned it into a long, playable par 4. About 458 from the tips and 440 from the men's tees. Genuinely don't know where the tee box would be at 505 yards. Women still play it as a 458 yard par 5.

Mick -- in the old days, the back tee box was basically above the cart shed. if you came out of the pro shop with #9 green back, below and to your right, you went up and to the left to get to the back tee box. it has been about 10 years since I've played there so I am not sure if that is the 505 tee box now or not.
You're probably right. I played it almost every day as a teenager in the mid-1970s, then about once a year for the thirty years after that. Always liked it, it was a great home course.
