G'day, mates !
Just finished playing this par-72 Australian course and found it very well designed with manicured and, sometimes, undulated fairways and plenty of bunkers around the greens... ready to welcome you with open arms, should you hit wayward shots.
Fortunately for me, this was not the case as I found this course relatively "easy" (by my modest standards) with a lot of straight or slightly curved holes and smooth greens, give or take a few.
On the front 9, I like the par-4 2nd hole with the nice fence at the right of the tee and the... electric poles along the road : small details, yes, but it shows that ron717 really tried to make the course look as real as possible. The two par-3 3rd and 5th holes are similar with plenty of bunkers near the greens.
The par-4 4th is the only dogleg hole on the front 9 and really looks nice.
On the back 9, the par-3 12th hole offers a nice overview and has a little slopey green. As for the final two par-4, the 17th, a dogleg to the right with water on the left, and the 18th with a very nice view of the clubhouse, are worth mentioning.
Despite its lack of difficulties, this course looks very nice and will stay in my collection of ron717's courses.
Come to think of it, I might call him "Crocodile... birdies" !

Gorgeous design of a well-known and picturesque Aussie course. Not quite in the same league as Royal Melbourne or Kingston Heath in the Victorian sandbelt but still a great test of golf, especially the back 9 - the main challenge being how you manage approach shots and some tricky putting. Really enjoyed playing it and another sweet design, cheers!

Hi Ron,
Fantastic rendition and as this course has also been released in Links 03, I consider myself lucky to have two versions being a local course and also having Royal Melbourne and Kingston Heath.
Five stars as usual with your courses.
Cheers
Brian
