Loved it - no surprises there. Think 7-12 was the absolute golden stretch for me, particularly 7-9, which are all-world holes. As ever, so much great understated work here - hope it goes well for you!

Wow Adam this is awesome. Loved the openness and the big views across the plot. Holes 8 to 12 were my favourites but everything is stellar and I always felt totally immersed in the environment, definitely got the St Andrews Beach vibes. Just so much fun to play and I hope you do really well in the contest!

Love lots of things here, Adam. Seriously some good golf. I’d also have to agree that the golden stretch was 7-12. The tree lines really made that special. Congrats on a great publish here!

Echoing the statements here. This course is subtle but some fun stretagy here. I enjoyed thinking my way through and know I probably missed some stuff and will be returning for more rounds. Good luck in the comp!

Love me a Grovey course. Be sure to submit it to the database so it can claim its standard spot on the elite schedule.
Kudos to finishing up the grind of a World Cup course!

Just submitted to the database. This one was definitely a major grind for a while but really happy with the finished product. Thanks for the continued support, it's greatly appreciated!

Good luck in the comp! Thanks for the play and the nice comments Ducker! I don't know how much is "hidden" per say but I do try to incorporate more than one way to play most of the shots out there so keep that in mind on your next go round. Good vibes!

This golf course deserves vastly more appreciation. Loved the clever fairway sculpting throughout, especially on 2 and 10 (have been trying out your idea on 2 myself, so I'm glad to see an established designer do it). I also loved the balance you had here between stressful narrow/heavily bunkered shots and wide open shots, even though every shot seemed to have my full attention. The subtlety here is definitely something I'll try to integrate more on my own courses, as you had some absolutely brilliant golf holes there (hole 12 comes to mind). The plot you've created felt very realistic and I loved the tree choices. One of my favorites in the contest for sure. Loved this one and will be back for more plays.

Thanks for the play and taking the time to post your thoughts! You pretty much summarized my approach to the course. I try to focus a lot on variety and making each hole feel a little bit different in it's own way so I'm glad to hear you enjoyed that part. I'm a big fan of your work and really enjoyed your entry as well. Thanks again and good luck going forward in the contest.

Really love low key courses, and I really love this one. Well done and congrats on a great publish, best of luck in the WC!
Echoing the previous statements about the holes around the turn.

Finally got around to playing this one. All I can say is it felt like I was playing a course that I made, and I mean that in the most "I resonated with this one" kind of way, and not at all like a "grats, you're on my level" kind of way. All the contouring made sense, there was subtlety to a lot of the shots, and the environment was great. Really enjoyed this one, like most all of your courses.

Nice looking plot i.imgur.com/bHnvHzu.jpg with some open sections and others a little more intimate with trees. Clubhouse setup with tents i.imgur.com/5tJdeXO.jpg obviously hosting a corporate day. Nice wide open fairways and the ability to play the ground game made for a very enjoyable round. Had a horror red slow off the 13th tee (lucky for some), that I managed to scramble for par with a great putt. Another red slow on my approach to 18 cost me a bogey. Really nice bunkering and planting.
