All the praise everyone else has heaped on this course, but I didn't see it was a fantasy course, I was ready to trek up to Canada and have a few brews, jam to Brant Bjork and the Bros! Disappointed that I could only do that in my fantasy! Thanks, BGravolicious!

Another stunning course from BGravolicious, with a gorgeous landscape, nice plantings, plenty of elevation changes and big rocks as potential hazards.
This par 72 course is a beauty from the 1st tee to the 18th green and, after finishing your round, you will have only wish : to play it again !
After a nice opening par-4 hole with an undulated fairway and an elevated green, you will need to think twice about your tee shot on the par-4 2nd, as a big rocky "wall" stands before the elevated green : if, potentially, you can reach the plateau near the green with your driver, you will end up in deep trouble if you don't...
After going uphill, you will go... downhill to reach the green of the nice par-3 3rd hole, before admiring the panoramic view from the tee box of the long par-5 5th hole, going slightly downhill before turning right towards the elevated green.
If the par-4 6th hole, with its small hill on the left is nice, my favorite holes, however, are the par-3 7th, quite scenic with its green on a high rocky plateau, the right dogleg par-4 8th hole, gorgeous with a small lake surrounded by high rocks on the right side near the green, and the par-5 9th, a left dogleg uphill with bunkers on the left side and a downhill green, but with big rocks in front.
Coming back, you will see more gorgeous holes, starting with the long par-5 12th, a left dogleg with an undulated fairway and a downhill green, followed by the par-4 13th, another left dogleg, with a downhill tee shot and an uphill green, and the par-4 14th hole, with a rollercoaster fairway with a deep drop in the middle of the fairway and big rocks on the right side.
But my favorite hole on the back 9 is the long par-5 18th hole, very pretty with its beautiful downhill tee shot, plenty of bunkers on both sides of the fairway and an elevated green.
With such a beautiful landscape, La Fin du monde plays very smoothly and, if the end is near, as Frank Sinatra used to sing, then you should hurry to download this masterpiece, designed by BGravolicious !

Love this course. Really nicely laid out. My only complaint is the 9th hole. The fairway off the tee is all fringe. Not sure if that was an error or by design. But when you're 250 yards from a hole in the fringe makes a huge difference then the fairway. I gave it a 4 because of this one reason.

Literal translation is "the end of the world" & it could be if you decide to set up camp & not play anywhere else. You could certainly do a lot worse, as this is a fabulous course - fave holes are 8, 9, 13 & 14. I did find one strange thing: played in a foursome & all tee shots on the par 5 9th landed in the fairway but were shown as "on the fringe" - same thing when clicking the overhead to check distance. Might be just a texture thing, as it didn't seem to affect play & wasn't a problem. Thanks BG, I'm "havin' fun & diggin' it"...

This may sound like A broken record but great course. The only thing you have to watch out for is getting down around the rocks.
I though my ball would never stop moving. LOL This would be A great test for the PGAX tour.

Well what can you say about this course, looks beautifull but is deadly! I got around in a miraculous even round but was so sickened by it looking down the par 5 18th I was deeply traumatised, might play it again but not just yet! I give it 5 stars and an X rating

Having tested B's courses for a long time, I have had the privilege of watching his talent and skill grow with each new course he has designed. In my humble opinion, this course is truly a masterpiece; And, although I retired from testing two years ago, I feel very honored that he asked me to test it.

Wow!!! This is a blockbuster for sure!! From the Master of the mountain courses. If anyone thinks this is easy, they have another thing coming.. You are superior to anyone I have ever seen in making these courses, from the awesome rock formations, to the smooth as a babies butt, bunkers, fairways and greens.. Attention to detail surpasses all..
This course is bitchen... No lag whatsoever either.. Fantastic Job BG!!!! Easy 5 stars from me...
