IIRC, it was 5 par 5's, 5 par 3's and the rest par 4's... Plenty of elevation changes requiring you to add or subtract a club...

The Turnpike was noticeable, but not distracting. Plenty of water to splash into...

Can't wait to play it again!
JM - That’s IMPOSSIBLE, I read 4 pages of posts here the Developer made Southern Oaks a terrible course on purpose so they can make more money.
