Kananaskis gets the nod in terms of course design, though Banff has its share of great holes. Scenery is better at Banff. Overall value is Kananaskis by a landslide.
Banff does completely own Kan in one respect (though some would say its a disadvantage) - they don't have the Gestapo like marshalls like Kananaskis does whipping you for being 2 minutes behind the pace. (a ball marker, wheee!) Completely sucks any sense of enjoyment out of a day in the mountains when all you can think about are ways to maim the marshall.
