In designing this course, my goal is to make it as fun as possible. Disclaimer: **This is not your typical golf course, and may not be for everyone**
After laboring over my first design, "Harambe Valley", for over a year (I got burnt out on multiple occasions), I decided to do another course and challenge myself on the design.
The challenges:
1. Finish the course much MUCH sooner than the first one (don't get caught up with all of the planting, etc. : Hence the theme)
2. Design a course with no bunkers or rough
3. Make it as fun as possible *in my opinion* that I would want to replay it multiple times
3A. In making it fun, make it challenging as well. It is not fun to me to have 120 yards in to the pin on a wide open green on every shot.
In 4 weeks I have finished the front 9 and have published it >>>> CH 2 Front 9.
Along the way some friends of mine who also play have contributed to design ideas and have play tested some of the holes. A few holes are kind of "gimmicky", but hey, it's fun to me! See Disclaimer
****This course will cause you to make risk/reward decisions, shape ball flights, execute shots, try to get lucky and may even cause some stress/anxiety******
Anything below par is a good score. This course is still rough around the edges in some places, but I would greatly appreciate anyone's comments on improving the course after they play it.
Thanks!
