No. 15 “On the Rocks” 435 yd Par 4 This is one of the most scenic holes at Valhalla, with Brush Run Creek running down the right side. The landing area is framed by deep bluegrass rough to the left and a large bunker to the right. However, the green, like the fairway, is skirted by Brush Run Creek, leaving little room for error to the right.

No. 16 - "Down the Stretch" 510 yd Par 4 This difficult par 4 is a slight dogleg to the right with Brush Run Creek guarding the entire right side. Any tee shot missing right will leave a player either a blocked shot to the green or having to deal with the creek. This has proven to be one of the most difficult holes at Valhalla because of the challenging green complex, which features two bunkers in front and a severe drop-off to a closely manicured chipping area to the right. This hole provides a wonderful, natural amphitheater for great spectator viewing.

No. 17 - "No Mercy" 472 yd Par 4 The tee shot at this uphill par 4 must find the fairway, thus avoiding the bunkers on the left and right. The green is well protected by two bunkers to the left and a closely mown chipping area to the right and rear. This is a wonderful hole to view the action.

No. 18 “Gahm Over” 545 yd Par 5 The 18th has proven to be a great finishing hole. This par 5 has a large fairway bunker to the left of the landing zone and a spectacular water feature on the right. Most players can reach this hole in two but must avoid the bunker guarding the front of the green as well as the smaller pot bunker on the left. The green complex is unique – offering three distinct putting areas shaped like a horseshoe, which provides a wonderful reminder of the equine heritage found in Kentucky.

That is amazing! Those pictures look almost identical, which is a testament to how good you are at this RCR technique. Very appreciated within this community, thank you so much!

Phenomenal work, the 'RCRs are boring' crew won't have a leg to stand on with this one! So many interesting holes, 13 stands out as being spectacular for both aesthetics and challenge. Fairways are really tough, pros must seriously struggle with this one, going to see if there are any youtube videos of tourneys here to see how they deal with it

Helped fine tune some of the little details around the course. Heres the link:

Fantastic course, enjoyed my round here when I played the other night. I think there was a publishing error though, the six hundred par five played as a par 4, made for one hell of a interesting hole though, outside that, really was a pleasure to play.

Yes, that was fixed with the version named “Valhalla GC”. I wasn’t very happy, but it was an easy fix.
