Very interesting layout, especially the par 5s. Number 8 and 18 give lots of options.
It was 106 F the day I played and the iced towels at holes 6 and 13 were really appreciated, nice touch. The course was empty (probably due to the heat) but I found it challenging and well designed. The greens had been aerated recently but were in decent shape despite that. The overall drought in the area has dried out the turf but every course in the metroplex seems to have this problem. The drivable number 7 was a good hole. There are actually quite a few very interesting holes. Look forward to playing it gain in a bit cooler weather.
