Hard to be impartial on this one - it's my favourite Links386 course bar none - so this here is pretty special. Awesome rendition, it looks gorgeous (though agree with others that snow-caps would've been the 'pinnacle') and the play is very smooth and true. As with the earlier, inferior version the front 9 is there for the taking whilst the back is stronger and better, architecturally, with a terrific finishing few holes - the inward 4's are great! For cronies like me, it's one to savour - take a bow Ron, this is brilliant. Cheers!

Simply awesome course visually ! Ranks at the top in terms of scenery (what a gorgeous panorama !) and the attention to details. Course plays very smoothly with wide fairways and greens are smooth, yet a little tricky at times (shot a 7 on the par-4 15th !). Hard to pick a favorite hole in particular : let me just say that the least spectacular are the par-3s, relatively easy compared to some other courses. The par-5s will also give you opportunities for eagles and you should finish your round with a low score before heading for the clubhouse to relax while enjoying the view ! Fantastic job ron717...
P.S. Only little glitch for me: water looks gray !

Looks very nice - plays good. The real game starts when your on the green - in wrong spot on green and you will need to be sharp with the putter. Very well done - thanks for sharing!

I agree with CRAZYHORSE - also one of my faves from Links386, with the majestic snowcaps. Beautifully done Ron, snow or no snow...

Nice job Ron. I have played this course a few times back in the mid 80's. Great representation. Liked the Devil's Caldron. Tough to do justice to the hotel though. Really enjoyed your efforts.
