Par 72 7326 yds. Cut thru a forest of mostly pine trees - plays great - looks good. Greens were a challenge and that is a good thing. I liked them. Grew up in this area and can vouch for the looks of the area. Authentic. Fav hole was the Island Green par 5 6th hole - especially if you are 170 yds out like I was on 3rd shot. Great course. Thanks for sharing.

This course is quite pleasant to look at and play but, unfortunately for me, I saw plenty of grainy patches between the panorama and the plot on quite a few holes (3rd, 6th, 10th, 13th and 18th)...
Plantings are well done, the road on the right side of a few holes is nice and the hilly panorama blends in well.
On the front 9, my favorite holes are the par-5 4th, a left dogleg downhill to the green, and the gorgeous par-5 6th, pretty straight with a rollercoaster fairway, a blind second shot and a third downhill shot towards the island green.
Water comes into play again on the next few holes : the par-4 7th is pretty straight but you will need a big tee shot over the wide lake, just like on the par-4 8th, where the green, reachable from the tee and guarded by a big bunker in front, is slightly elevated.
Coming back, if the par-5 13th hole is slightly downhill and nice, the best hole, by far, is the very long (more than 700 yards) and tough par-5 18th, next to the road, with its rollercoaster fairway, a second shot uphill and a green, with a big pond on the right.
Overall, this par 72 plays smoothly but is not too difficult and, because of its grainy patches and its very dark cars and house (on the par-4 9th hole), I prefer Bigstamp49's other design, the City Heights Golf Club, much more scenic...

Excellent job BigStamp49, felt like a real course.
Couple of pins were questionable, but other then that, very nice job!

Thats funny I just played this hole 15 on practice mode and the pin placement was better, right in the middle of the green. I will replay this course and try it on difficult pins, maybe hole 15 will be easier?

I did not say there should be no rock there I said THAT rock in particular looks out of place. also about SuperG424,s comment that "his friend" here's comments hold no value I said they were minor niggles, and it is my opinioon...if I am allowed them? I also said it was an excellent course...you have a problem with that?

The comment about the rock on hole number 1 is nonsense. That rock saved my life and kept my ball in the fairway off the tee-shot. lol. Anyway, this course was amazing. Awesome lay out. Awesome tree placement. Difficult shots to make. Was very pleased and had fun with this course.

I for one was very pleased with the layout as well as the design. As far as the comments on 1st and 15th holes........well to say the least my friend, it really holds no value, excellent use of the sources given to you.

Just played this one Excellent course look almost real. But some niggles with it. So first Hole 1 a minor niggle the rock halfway down the fairway on the right loos really out of place, could do with it not being there.
next was Hole 15, the big bunker halfway down is really spoiling a goiod par 5 if it was moved forward more then you have a good chance to drop short of it and still hit a long tee shot.
The worst thing for me was set on dry and easy pin placement, hole 15 pin was way too difficult! okay if the green was rolling but this green (and a few others along the way) is really humpback! why have a green area that that at times is nearly vertical. So that hole was not very realistic.
so an excellent course could have been COLT status as from hole 1 it felt like it was going to be! but the niggles crept in for me anyway.

I really like this course. Some different looks on the holes. Edges of fairways to roughs, short rough to long rough etc very well done. Congratulations on a superior course.
