No need. Takes nothing away from the super job of the video.

Plus I still can't get there by cart.

You can always purchase a car, drive there, and pay a whopping $3 to rent a cart.

As for us, we do not own a cart and we always walk the exec courses. We avoid the poorly designed courses with silly long walks from one green to the next tee (Sarasota, Ocachobee, Escambia). Gray Fox has a couple fairly long walks, but the course is beautiful and we very much enjoy them.

The newspaper write up does not do justice to the par 4 hole on Longleaf, while it's not #6 on Pelican, it will be a difficult hole.

One must assume that the Loblolly course is being delayed a little longer due to the heavy construction ongoing at the north end of the course at CR468. The tunnel structure is in place that will pass under CR468 but there is still a lot of work to go.

6. Longleaf and Loblolly

This video took over 30 hours and 10 flights to map out, get a good flyover, and produce. It may not seem too difficult since it's just a 9 hole course but without existing maps and other data on the area (everything available still shows it either under construction or a cow pasture) I had to create the data needed to plan the flights and fly them several times to get the views you see here.

Enjoy the video and let me know what you think.
Thank you for your time & sharing this with everybody. Can't wait to play these 2 courses. They're both a little longer than what most of us are used to playing. Thanks Again!

I agree! Fenney is a beautiful Village but so far to really do much. I don't know but I heard that property tax are a little higher & amenities are more. I guess home prices are about the same as north of R.R. 44.

Thanks, they do take a little bit of work to put together but they are great to fly as long as the trees play nice.

You heard?
Why would amenities be more? Could be because they are new homes and would pay the current fee. Visit Village Community Development Districts for explanation how amenity fee is determined.
You guess home prices are the same.
What is your point?

Great video. Do you have others of TV courses? As an executive course walker, I have been dismayed at how little foresight has been given to the playability of TV courses. It seems to be getting worse as TV grows. Gray Fox was the worst with about 1585 yards from the gold tees, but about 2250 yards additional to get to/from the course and from greens to tees. Played Loblolly once and will not return. Guessing based on your video, the walk between the 6th green and the 7th tee is about 1400 yards. That can only be accomplished by a single with no one behind.
