Below are more stats, giving the number of occurrences of  each score, using only pro and pro master players, from 3 tournaments. For pro and pro master combined there were 15 players (30 rounds) from April Showers 2006,  28 rounds from the 2006 Battle Of Saratoga, and 38 rounds from April Showers 2 in 2007, for a total of 96 rounds, pro only. Note: Old 14 and old 17 were used in April Showers 1 and Battle 2006; new 14 and new 17 for April Showers 2 in 2007.

The above table gives us a good insight into which holes are well-designed, and which are poorly-designed, and gives us a chance to make improvements for each hole. A good hole should separate skilled players from less skilled players, so there should a statistically smooth bell curve centered around par with a good and fairly equal number of birdies and bogeys on each side, and not too many skewed off the bell curve. Signs of a poorly designed hole are when too many people get the same score. The flatter the bell curve, the better the hole, because it separates the players better. For example, holes 12 and old 17 are bell curves centered around 4, but old 17 had a narrow bell curve and hole 12 has a wide one. This means hole 12 is better at separating the players. Old 14 and 10 have the worst bell curve...too many people getting a 3, and very few birdies or bogeys. A hole like that does not separate the players very much. For holes like that, we need to make birdies easier or pars harder, to flatten out the bell curve. Also, 15 and 9 get too many 3's and not enough 2's, but enough people get 4's on those holes that it separates the players well, so those holes won't be changed. Hole 14 has been changed and now separates the players better, hole 10 is next.

These stats also tell us the pars of the holes. The par is around the center of the bell curve. We clearly see that hole 12 is a par 4, it's the center of the bell curve. We can also see that hole 16 is a par 5, and so is hole 5. 

Hole 3 centers around par 2 but there is no such thing as a par 2. This just means it's a "deuce or die" hole, or an ace run, where the bell curve peaks around 2 and needs a few 1's to even out the curve. Old hole 14 had 42 pars and only 2 birdies. That's a sign of a bad hole, and why we changed it.

Hole 6 is waiting to be aced, by the stats. It has more 2's than 3's. Also 1 and 11, maybe 2, are ace runs. The only holes to be aced so far with witnesses are listed below. Witnessed eagles on the course during tournament or organized play have been two 3's on hole 16 (Morgan Wright, Kurt Waggoner), a 2 on hole 12 (Mike Broderick), three 3's on hole 5 (Craig Cutler, Daniel Marcus, and Jason Johnson), and a 2 on hole 8 (Jeff Zipkin). No double-eagles yet. Non-witnessed eagles or aces don't count.

After looking at these stats, we see:

Hole 10 gets all 3's and almost no 2's, so we will clear all the protector trees from around the pin this year so more people can get 2's.
Hole 4 gets mostly 3's a no 2's at all. Lots of 4s though so its cool.
Hole 5, people on the tee pad get hit with discs from 4, need to move the tee pad up the hill. This will probably reduce the par to 4.
 

Witnessed aces:

hole 3, Morgan Wright (3 times).
hole 7, some dude forgot his name, and Ben Basilio from Syracuse
hole 11, Paul Dunham
hole 18, Craig Cutler, Matt Alberghini, Greg Kurtz (twice)
