Holy crap that was a hard golf course and it was also one of the most beautiful courses I've ever played. The greens are in perfect condition and super fast, had a 20'down hill putt that I smoothly putted off the green and into the water, did the same thing on 2 down hill chips. If you were above the green it was darn near impossible to leave it within 3 to 5 feet, at least it was for me and I'm a 10 handicap. The greens were also very undulating, not many straight putts outside of 4', they are what I imagined Augusta would be like. As for the fairways, not a weed to be found and not a flat lie either. It felt like every shot was above or below my feet. They were lined with tall pines that also looked like Augusta on TV with the pine straw under them. Just a great, hard golf course, it really tested my game. Shot 102, I haven't shot over 90 in 5 years but this course kicked my tail. Looking forward to going back someday.

Course is absurd. I shot a par free 96 from the two-ups as an 8 handicap a few years ago. I want another crack at it..

It’s probably my favorite course I’ve ever played. Just a great track and probably as close to Augusta National as I’ll ever get a chance to play.

Played there a few weeks ago. Absolutely immaculate course. Shot a 88 which is about 10 strokes higher than normal, but absolutely loved it.

These guys are pretty decent amateur golfers, they video document courses they play, here's Mystic Creek >
