Interesting course with its wide open space, tree-lined fairways spread here and there (with not much around) and quite a few narrow greens.
This par 72 is well designed and seems rather easy, at first, but it can give you fits with its small elevation changes, blind shots, water hazards and big bunkers guarding the greens on a few holes.
After the nice par-4 1st hole, I like the slightly downhill left dogleg par-4 2nd hole and its tiny green, and the very delicate approach shot to the green of the par-5 3rd hole, very close to the lake on the right.
The par-4 5th hole, with its uphill tee shot and downhill green is nice too, just like the par-3 6th hole with its nice overview as you reach the green. But my favorite hole is the twisted par-5 9th, with its very tough approach shot over trees and big bunkers around the green.
On the back 9, the par-5 14th hole is very nice with its serpentine creek, but the par-5 17th, with its wide open fairway and very narrow green is even nicer. As for the par-4 18th, with the lake hugging the fairway on the right side, you better avoid the lone tree standing halfway through the narrow fairway before trying to reach the narrow green with its difficult pin placement.
Not spectacular, this course will offer you a few challenging holes and will let you rest on some nice little benches so that you hear all the birds and toads around...

This is a well made course Ron a bit laggy on my old comp (need and upgrade) but somehow did not enjoy it as your previous courses, seems this design is very tight and no room for driving and the greens are small and tucked away. Well okay I did play a crap round but besides that, not my cup of tee. I am trying out the true blue tomorrow.

Sorry, for not giving the 18 holes used for course at upload. The front nine is by Palmer and the back nine is by Player. Hope it plays well for everyone and hope the greens are fair.

The comments also mention the Player nine on Uchee Creek.

Per the architect's comments: "... Bluffs on Nicklaus nine, and Palmers nine ..."
