Thanks Brad. Got a ways to go though. Here's the par 3 176 yard hole #6 from the tee and left side of the green.Image

I like the mounding in the vicinity of the greens and the warm tropical feel. Could be your best work yet, Steve.

Thanks Galen!! I think the background enhances that tropical feeling and sets the mood! Hope all is well!!

ImageWow, 633 views! Hope Palm Harbor lives up to the expectations!! Here's some shots of hole #9. This 532 yard par 5 has so many options starting at the tee where you can lay up and just hit it straight or play the right side of the fairway and knock off 10 or 15 yards to the green where it can be reached with some risks. Your second shot also has the option to lay up and go for the chip to the green as well. Like all the greens at Palm Harbor closer to the pin is better but they all provide fun putts! These five shots show the tee, the layup approach, the aggressive approach to the right, the second fairway layup and an aerial of the green!Image

Thanks Brad!
Hole #10 is a 470 yard par 4 that starts out in a more wooded area but ends up back in the tropics. The split fairway leaves you with a slightly uphill approach to a testy little green but plenty of birdies will be had here. Views from the tee, the uphill approach and an aerial view of the green from the left rear and front!Image

ImageHole #11 is a 321 yard par 4 that can be reached from the tee but must carry a pond to reach the green. The safe play will leave a short chip to the green but what's the fun in that??? Here is a view from the tee, the short approach and an aerial from behind the green looking back at the tee. Please note the large drop area fronting the pond should you fail to reach the green!!Image
