8127 yards? Holy moly, that's a long track! I'll give it a run sometime later today. Are carts available because that's a lot of walking.

To be quite honest, the middle tee set is where most people should ply from. The back tee box is there for anyone who wants more of a challenge. Although, you’ll be surprised at how it doesn’t play as long as it sounds from the tips. There are a good amount of downhill tee shots.

8100? Who you think you are, an RTJ course? Looking forward to playing this one on a Friday night soon I'm sure.

First from the blues and second from the blacks. I actually shot one better from the black (first round was ugly). Course looks good. It's fair and you are right about how it doesn't play as long as it sounds from the tips. I enjoyed playing it.

Now that was an easy 5-star favourite for me. Played just like a RCR. Finished -4 using Beer League settings, pin set 1 and default conditions from the black tees. 3 bogeys in the first 6 holes and then an eagle on 9 to start a solid run in. Birdied 11 (??) long par 4 (must be rated index 1!) after chipping in. Hole 7 the short 4 was a highlight. Classic risk reward type. Pulled the driver out and hit a perfect with the breeze off the right and watched the ball all the way from the tee just work around nicely rolling down the slope near the green and just finishing in the light rough front right. Chipped long unfortunately and 2 putted for par. The short 4 is the most underrated hole in golf IMO. It's a pure example of where length is irrelevant if the hole is designed well, e.g. strategically placed bunkers, water, hollows or mounds and a raised green and/or with plenty of movement and a short cut around the perimeter provides sufficient difficulty. You've done an absolute stellar job with this course Darryl. You should be proud. Thanks for your good work. I'm generally not one for desert, mountain or tropical palm treed lined courses but this was an absolute exception. Cheers

Wow absolutely beautiful man! Just played through and the view on every shot was spectacular! I've favorited and I'll pass it along to the group I play in. Very nice course!

Shot -12 from the tips. Great time, definitely felt like 8000 yards though. Only 13 girs but 17 1 putts. Wonder which scheduler has their eye on this one.. with the tee options it could go anywhere..

Dang what a nice course this was! Played from the tips and felt that it was a very fair test for being so long. Great job!
