Aerial Shots of Holes 1 & 2. I've started work on the 17th as the tee box is side by side with the 2nd hole and then runs along the left hand side of 2nd hole with a big water hazard separating the two holes, makes more sense to do the course in area blocks.

Just some more images from the opening 2 holes. The first showing off the shamrock bunker while introducing the water element that awaits players in the very next hole. Green side shot on the 2nd hole looking back down the fairway. A long par 5, only reachable in the strongest of favourable winds, best play for position on that second shot. Plenty of bunkers, awkward angles and elevation added in to make the approach a lot tougher.
