I enjoy them all! Index<8. The execs are rated 1-4 on difficulty. The 4 courses are plenty challenging, but the others have challenges as well. Sometimes I purposely hit one less club so I come up short to work on my chipping or sand play. Often I won't tee the ball up, just play it off the turf as if it was a fairway shot on a regular course. On some courses the tees are all about the same yardage if you stay with one set of tees, so I'll change tees to get different yardages and not hitting the same club on many holes.

On the regulation courses I don't see the backs of the houses, even though they're there. I've played many courses built within a development where the houses are much closer to the holes than here.
