Credits:  Keith Holzapfel -  He is the playtester that made me go back
          and redo the greens before uploading the course.

          Lee Ritze - For redoing the coloring of the AUGUSTALR backgroud 
          and objects which were the basis of my original design work in
          the limited edition designer.



The Course

This is my second try at designing a course, but I hope the lessons that Scott
,Jaybird, Designer, Mark Willet and especially Lee Ritze have given with
 the great courses they have put out shows. This course took quite a long
 time to finish as several holes were designed several times before a good,
 playable hole came out. My favorite hole is #10, one of the longer par 3's
but one of the first 3 pars I have designed that actually looked good.

I always welcome feedback of any kind (good or bad) on my courses as I am 
trying to become a better designer. I do ask that you be specific -
 telling me that a hole (or even an entire course) sucks doesn't help
 much unless you specify how it sucks.
