My entry to Griff's Designer Challenge Series. Set in Coronado, Alberta, just outside Edmonton, Coronado Athletic Club is proud to unveil it's 2017 renovation! To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the course, it was renovated to bring back some of the original elements of the design. Not long by today's standards, this 7,000 yard par 70 will still find a way to challenge the games best. Dramatic landscapes ensure that thought will need to be required to score, and the course refuses to be overpowered, even after all of these years. Hope you enjoy, and as always, thoughts and criticisms are appreciated.

I had an awesome time on this course tonight, including this gem on the second hole! Fantastic course in my opinion, and a lot of fun to play.

I apparently grew up an hour away from Coronado, but had no idea it was there. More startlingly, it is right next to another town named "Fedorah", home of the snappiest hats in Alberta.
Can't wait to try it out, other Matt. Looks really great, loving the big bunkers on the left of that par 3 especially.

The comments on this course really show what HB is achieving with this game. Another superb course that has been missed by many.
There are so many good designers that this game helps bring their designs to the masses. Wouldn't it be great if somehow the junk could somehow be put on a back burner as been suggested by many, thus allowing good courses and an obvious upcoming designers course to be seen and recognized.
I really hope that in the future this will be something that can be addressed by HB.
This is a great game that can and will improve through positive critique from all members.

The other day I saw an autogen with like 100 plays and then I see courses from great designers (take Jives’ The Knolls for example) with like 75 plays. Onto this course specifically, the pictures look great, especially the lighting. Will be going on my to-play list.
