Wow. I don't know which of my top five courses has to go... but I have to make room up there. Excellent course! I enjoyed every hole, and will definitely be playing another round soon.

yep, you made the turn. I still think you could do a little less flattening out of your play areas (not the bumps, the overall flow of the land)...but this is top notch. Had three tempo issues which meant three bogies but shot 63. I'll come back and get those 50's! dang it.
also...back tees. Firmer. Champ edition. go.

This contest just ended.
I dont think I've said " you've got to be kidding me" so many times in one round!
Amazing Design!

Silver lining: 20 designers just threw in the towel. Top 50 here I come!
Nicely done. First thought on the opening hole, "welp...found one of the finalist".

In a word ... stunning. One of the most visually beautiful courses I’ve ever played in this game. Great strategic designs on your holes too. A true work of art great job.

I went back and read the PM I sent you after Lake Sofia dropped, and I was on the opposite side of the course thread that was calling it the best course in the game. I can't remember a course making me say "holy sh%$" upon load up like this one did though. The view off that first hole is stupid good. I like playing depth tricks with bunkers to make them look clustered when they really have 50-100 yards between them, you did that with giant rock outcroppings. Hole 2 elevation change is done well, hole 3 is an incredible looking par 3. The planting around the bunkering on 4 is great, along with the gradual slope up to the green. I do think the trees take away from it a little, it's kind of a joke at this point about how I despise the toothpick trunk tree look on links-style courses but it's used sparingly enough and I won't mention it again, but I would love this even more without a single tree on the course, or buried deeper into the ground so they weren't majority trunk. 5, maybe one of my favorite short 4's in the game? The approach into the green on 7, diabolical. Rockwork retaining wall on 9, pffffffft, view off the tee and the one on the scout cam when you view the green, what. the. @!$#. I'm telling you. This is the Sindre course I've dreamed of for 2 years now.
11 tee shot - I've seen horizon greens, not sure I've seen a horizon fairway. 12 bridge, maybe a little TOO fancy just to get to a tee box, but I support the flex. 13 view from the tee, seriously? 14 is the first time I've thought "another short 4"? Don't know if I remember getting on over 460 or not, maybe it's the elevation change that masks it. Moot point, I bogeyed it lol. 15, here's my long par 4. Love how the tee shot on 17 really affects the ease of your approach shot. The fairway bunkers feel like old Sindre bunkers, weird shapes and no grass planting around them, like you forgot them or something.
Honestly, course blew me away. Perfect difficulty for CC, I could've done without any of the trees entirely, and a lot of your greens still feel like each of your pins gets it's own tier/bowl way too often, but that's really just preference and me trying to find something to nitpick. Really enjoyed my round here, and I have no problem admitting that I was on the fence on whether or not I'd finish a CC submission and you might've made my decision for me with this one.
