Very nice layout. A definite must play in the Americus GA area. Challenging but not overly difficult. Provides many great scoring opportunities on a number of risk/reward holes. I carded my only ace on the #4 par 3 and have carded numerous eagles on par 4's and 5's but if you play these holes wrong they can turn into doubles just as easy. There is a lot of OB lining many fairways especially on par 5's. The back 9 has just been improved and reshaped with championship speed greens and the front 9 will have the same updates in 2013. Good Luck and have fun.
