Well, this... Elwell Trail course is quite nice, with some beautiful hilly panoramic views all along, and quite challenging, at times, with a few doglegs, with wide waste areas filled with deep rough and some well-placed rock outcroppings, not to mention a few tricky greens.
On the front 9, my favorite holes are the gorgeous downhill right dogleg par-5 opening hole, with a green, surrounded by big bunkers, the left dogleg par-4 3rd, with a tee shot over a wide area filled by high rough and a sloped fairway downward to the green (nicer than the similar par-4 4th), and the downhill par-3 5th hole, with a nice panoramic view as you reach the green.
The two right dogleg par-4 holes (6th and 7th) are quite nice too, with a small lake in front of an undulating green, and another lake far away in the horizon, on the first, and a tough tee shot flying above a wide area with more deep rough (and, hopefully, landing onto the fairway, set on a plateau), on the latter.
I also like the tough downhill par-3 8th hole, with three different-sized bunkers guarding the green (to the left and in front).
Another downhill hole awaits you on the par-4 10th, with a tee shot over an elongated wide area filled with deep rough (slightly on the left) landing onto a multi-tiered fairway, and an uphill approach toward the green (set on a high plateau), just like the par-5 12th hole, with a downhill tee shot landing short of an elongated area, filled with high rough, and over which you will have to hit your second shot to reach the green.
The par-5 15th is another downhill dogleg hole, bending sharply to the left, with a small mound, filled with high rough, a few shrubs and two rock outcroppings (on the left), and a small elongated bunker in front and to the left of the green.
Then, after the... downhill par-3 16th hole, with a wide area filled with deep rough between the tee box and the green, and the right dogleg par-4 17th, similar to the 7th, but with less elevation, with a big puzzle-shaped bunker in front and to the right of the green, you will finish with the pretty par-4 18th hole, with more rock outcroppings surrounded by high rough, in the middle of the fairway, midway, (leaving you with a choice of hitting your downhill tee shot to the left or to the right), and more deep rough to the right, leading to the green.
Overall, if you have a feeling of “déjà vu” on a few holes, this par 72 is quite enjoyable and its pretty landscape and slight elevation changes make it worth to embark on its... trail, thanks to Hunting Leopard !

Nice mid class(?) course with a humourous group of fir trees, always the same formation, at many holes and a ghost clubhouse where I took a drink with count Dracula.
Nice lay out..
Thanks mr Leopard

Thanks for the comments guys. The Pano definitely changed the course for the better. @PhilT...do you remember which greens were lumpy? I thought they were pretty smooth for me, but I have the intimate knowledge of the course. I'd like to play with them more and get a better feel before the next course gets released.

Nice dramatic tee views all around the course well made and good tree choice/ pano BUT for me the greens could be a little bit smoother some were very "lumpy" and could not get a read on them, a bit "hit and hope" on some, more luck than judgement, but this is getting better all the time!

Love it.
The hole vista from the tee box's is outstanding.
Tough greens again, but fair.
Enjoyed the walk.
