I'm pretty sure this is your best course too. Everyone seems to be lifting for this one. Congrats mate - really enjoyed it.

loved the environment here. good use of strategy around the course as well. fun to play but still challenging at the same time. Agree with Heisenberg, probably your best course to date. Well done!

Great course mate. Loved the environment and you did a great job of the planting.. grass renders really will. Some really fun holes designs and great views.

Hey mate I'm currently building a course set in Thailand, Red Mountain is one influence. I can see that this course morphed away from that kind of style a bit, as they tend to do.
The view from the first tee is really well put together, very very well crafted.
Elevation changes were handled really well, added challenge but didn't feel forced or unnatural. Planting / environment created with the bunkers / dunes was great - you've hidden the edges of the bunkers really well and they look very natural.
12 is my favourite hole.
If I could give one criticism it's that the actual plot / islands that the course is sitting on looks a little contrived, as in they have been created to house the holes as opposed to being natural landforms upon which a golf course has been routed. But this is only really noticeable if you go looking for it - I was very interested in taking a close look at how the course was constructed so I was taking a close look.
Really enjoyed this, great course.
Appreciate the Ukraine flag.

I love island courses with the dramatic coast lines and this one is no exception. The plot looks great i.imgur.com/CwyBVr5.jpg with the surprise airport i.imgur.com/IZh1PRk.jpgAn interesting hut stand i.imgur.com/F3DiTKz.jpgNice clubhouse up on the hill i.imgur.com/T35UlfH.jpgOne of my favourite waterways I've seen in the game i.imgur.com/SPFBAYb.jpgA fitting tribute of colour on the first tee i.imgur.com/Zqg1M93.jpgStanding on the first tee I wasn't sure to go top or bottom deck. Lots of elevation changes kept the ol' brain matter ticking over as to the shot to play. That waterway on the 5th is stunning and looks so natural. Driver/driver on 7. A slow on 8 put me pin high in the bunker. Took a risk on 10 that didn't pay off and paid the price with a triple. Loved the drivable 11th, with a 3 putt par. Can't believe my putt on 12 didn't go in. With my drive on 14 finishing behind the trees I had a slinger approach shot. The trees didn't block my shortcut on 16 but my rubbish approach shot killed a birdie chance. A peach into 17 and a solid dogleg par5 to finish. 5 stars, I really enjoyed my round.

Wild and fun course here Eric. I agree with others saying this is up there with you best. A lot of fun and a good mix of risk/reward and strategic through the round.
