Blackheart was too hard you say??? Pfft.........wait till you see.....'Slope'......or maybe not, maybe it's too easy for CC-Am.......
(Ok - so it hasn't got a name yet, and while difficult (around the greens) currently, that may also change.....) But it does have 18 playable holes........although only two are planted at all. It's also got about 6/7 potential different routings, so while these two holes are currently nos 17+18, that may change considerably by the end.......
17th hole (431yd par 4) - choices off the tee - lay up down the left short of the 2nd bunker, or drive it over the right trap and roll well down the hill for a shorter approach - but that approach will be blind and will need to be hit very high to clear the trees short right of the green
The green is set in a totally natural bowl, and literally only need one tiny bit of sculpting around the front left pin.....
18th hole (546yd par 5) - tight but reachable par 5 - don't miss right with either shot:
In fact - don't miss the green anywhere - there isn't an easy up and down to be had!

8th hole - 293yd driveable par 4
2nd hole - 455yd par 4, doglegging to the right. Make sure you hit the fairway, as finding the correct section of green is vital...... (1st fairway and front section of green on the right of pic)

13th hole - par 3, 125 yards Yes - there are certain similarities with the infamous 16th at Blackheart

14th hole - 432yd Par 4 A tight tee shot - with options to try and drive over the cross stream, or play a simple lay up short - one leaves 8i, the other SW/LW. The 15th hole comes back towards you on the left of the first and third pics.

Really liking the look of this. If it's as much fun as Blackheart, we're in for a treat

It is actually a lot easier than Blackheart - provided you get your approaches on the right tiers of the greens (and there are lots of tiers / hollows / slopes)
But there are similarities (the island par 3, big runoffs from greens etc)........
Got a couple more holes to plant still......

Getting close now (the delay is nothing to do with not touching the designer for nearly a month....honest)
Looking down the 1st fairway from on the clubhouse roof:
2nd approach and green to the right, along with 3rd tee (and 7th tee which is behind the trees near the gazebo) to the foreground right. 6th green near left and 5th fairway beyond it
12th tee shot (par 5, dogleg left) - played over the corner of the 11th green (and more importantly the lake beyond!)
And the view into the 12th green (with 9th green to the left)
