Welcome to Hidden Hen GC! Originally a secluded 9 hole course with membership restricted to those living within the subdivision surrounding the front. The membership recently purchased the think forest across the street and had a back 9 put in matching the architecture of the front, with some added length suited for today’s game. Along with the back 9 creation, the membership invested in a state of the art practice facility, housing a wedge game area, chipping area, large putting green, and a perfectly manicured driving range. And the best part is they’re all lit so you can practice all night long! Coming in at a par 72, that includes a par 35, 3200 yard front 9, and a par 37, 3900 yard back 9, your game will forsure be tested with the hummocks guarding the fairways and deep bunkers guarding the greens. This is my first competition course so if you could provide me any feedback that would be great! Tees are as follows: Blue - 7103 yards White - 6878 yards Green - 6592 yards Red - 6349 yards Practice Facility: 10th green 11th green 12th green 16th green

The best part so far is the extreme character arc of the name for the course in the screenshots. Starting out as just a simple "Parkland Comp", they evolved into "Little Hen Club". Though, not to be outdone, the course's journey had just begun. As the finishing touches were applied, and the sculpting mastered, the course matured into its final form: The great "Hidden Hen GC". Looking back upon what it once was, Hidden Hen GC, remembers its time as a simple 9 hole vision without a clear name. But now. Now, Hidden Hen GC has found its true identity, the one that will forever be remembered by designers and video golfers alike. Can't wait to give this one a go!

Changed the name for the final time right before publishing😂

Just popped by for a round… really nice job on this course!… loads of interest and some really good green complexes with some nicely sculpted bunkers … impressive… I had a decent round eagling the 11th… good luck for the judging !

Thanks for giving it a play rich! It’s hard to make a parkland (one with no water at that) interesting. You must’ve caught the course on a day when the 11th pin was down on the right!

Played a round here this morning on Pin 4 and really had a blast . What impressed me the most was the actual hole designs and bunkering style and hazard placement throughout the course . I really played strategically and thought my way round to a 62 but this was down to some great approach work mainly. jcollick This Barbarian very much liked this course and i think it will do well in the contest as it was memorable and I would also enjoy to play this in a 4 round tournament also. A great Job and your Dream Team entry will certainly be on my radar . Barbarian 5 stars from me. Cy

If anyone was watching DT draft and was going "who is this jcollick guy?" and "why was he picked?" I hope this course answers that question for you. Go team Blue!

Just thoroughly enjoyed a round at Hidden Hen. Fun to play, shot -4 from the backs. Very clean look and well designed layout. Realistic looking for sure. Bunker sculpting stood out for me - great looking bunkers (in a way mine aren't). Might have been a better look if the bunkers were surrounded by heavy rough instead of half fairway/half heavy rough and #16 tree blocking 2nd shot from fairway might be better if it was back farther. Good luck in the contest. thanks, Bob
