    DESIGN GOALS:
         My goal in this design was threefold. First, my objective
    was to design a course that was suitable for tournament play, yet was
    not so difficult that the "Sunday Duffer" would be discouraged.
    Second, I wanted to design something that was unique and would be
    remembered. And lastly, I wanted to design a course that required both
    an attack plan and the use of all clubs in the bag. I hope I have
    accomplished these goals. The test will be what others think of it.
         Something I have not seen much are courses carved out of the
    swamplands of the south. I'm sure they are there, I just haven't seen
    nor heard of them. I figured that such terrain would be difficult to
    work with and result in a very unique course.
         The course plot used in this design is purely my own. I started
    with a clean slate. I tried to create a typical swamp terrain.  It is
    fairly flat and filled with water. This particular piece of land is
    also on the ocean.  This gave me the opportunity to use both the
    swampland aspects as well as some beach front terrain. Note: the land
    plot does not show water, or sand, which was placed during the
    creation of each hole.
         My major aim in course design is to create difficulty yet
    maintain fairness.  I dislike courses were the fairways are extremely
    narrow with heavy rough lining the fairways. Or, terrain that punishes
    what appears to be a perfect shot, like rolling from the middle of the
    fairway into the deep stuff, or worse!  The course difficulty should
    be in the design.  This is what I strived to achieve.
         As with most such efforts, this was a labor of love. More than
    any other effort of mine, I was able to live this creation.  Somehow
    the land features seemed to spring to life on each hole. It truly was
    an experience to design this course.
