Getting close to wrapping up here. Have to playtest a lot to see if there is anything I can do to make any of the holes even more fun to play, and do some various clean up of planting, and that's about it.
The published course might have a slightly different name, due to a sentimental coincidence that I uncovered in the course. That detail will be revealed in the completed thread.
Here's a power plant that you might see in the distance, or might not.
The par 5 11th hole. You'll want to hit it where the fairway bunker is, but don't, otherwise you will be faced with a tricky layup.
A ravine to the right of the layup area is OB.
It will take a couple big hits to reach the green, otherwise there is a small fairway area short of it. The green is large and multi-sectioned.
The par 3 12th. Great views are in the distance across the front 9, while a mound on the front right of the green will dictate shots to most pins.
The par 4 13th. The most direct route is down the right, which happens to be heavily guarded. The angle of the green favors shots from the left, although the hillside to the left of the green can be used as a little bit of a backboard if approaching from the right.
The par 4 14th. The hillside feeds tee shots to the right, leaving a blind approach to a green that slopes away. Sling one around the fairway bunker if you want a better and more visible approach.
The par 5 15th. A Great Hazard is featured in the middle of the hole, and it's unlikely you'll be able to clear it on a drive even with the stiffest tailwind. You still might reach on the second however, which features a punchbowl in the back right of the green.
The par 4 16th. The hole starts on top of a ridge, and features a big downhill tee shot. The hole is bunkerless, but a large hazard rests up the left side of the fairway where the best tee shot would go. Aim at it at your own risk, as it could send your ball anywhere. If you do find trouble, the green has a sideboard on the right side that can steer wayward shots back into play.
The par 3 17th. This is a brawny par 3, although there is plenty of room to run tee shots into the green. The left side can be used to deflect balls back into the middle of the green, which might be a good strategy to avoid the mound in the front center.
The par 4 18th. This hole plays uphill the whole way, into a green that sits in a natural amphitheater at the foot of the clubhouse. The left fairway bunkers are partially hidden from the back tee, but you will want to hug the right side of the fairway if you want a glimpse of the flag on your second shot.
The back of the green is sloped to catch shots that are long, and can be used strategically. Blow it through the green into the rough, though, and you will have a tough time staying on the green.
