And just like that, all your songs are belong to us.
Youāre a damn wizard. Thanks!
Hello everyone I just finished reading this and I think this whole thing is fantastic. Iām looking very forward to seeing how this 6-hole masterpiece ends up. I requested to join the e-mail list and join and Iām now hyped that I have something to look forward to reading everyday. If there is any help needed I will do the best that I can
Oddly enough, as I was poking through TFE website as I usually do after the kids go to bed, I stumbled on the article that this is actually where the Brough Creek National stuff was happening. I donāt know why, but I never put all the pieces together.
I wish I still lived in KC and I couldāve come help out. I think Iām heading back for work soon though. Iāve cleared a decent chunk of my own 2 acre lot and have chainsaw, will travel. looks like i have some reading to do to catch up.
Hole flyovers for those who donāt follow on Twitter or Instagram:
Hole 3 āGolden Bellā:
Hole 4. Lotās of conversation about playing this hole the opposite way Iāve got it routed. We will play up the ridge in a more dramatic spot!
Hole 5. Skinny 20-25 yard sliver of a landing area:
I. Need. A. Headcover.
I think they are arriving today.
I realize Iām like the 500th guy to post a ājust discovered thisā comment, but damn. The level of dedication to not only build a course but also organize contributions, develop member packets, AND document it all is a serious undertaking.
Standing ovation for you all from East Tennessee. Bravo.
Believe it or not, thereās already more than 500 members!
Regards,

Awesome you found us. It has been fun. Now we need the weather to play in our favor so we can get back out there and keep making content/progress on the course.
Really want to do video build blogs to track the progress. Very upbeat on our amateur video capabilities. Hopefully you all feel the same after our first video release on Wednesday.
@Zocco we hit 600 members this weekend Who knowās which club has the largest membership in the world?
I just gave away about 75 used ProV-quality balls to a program here in town, but after I build up another large batch (raiding my dadās stash should help do the trick), Iāll send them your way with a shag bag to boot.
Also, I should have mentioned that part of my introduction to the game was in my grandpaās self-made backyard range. About 30-40 yards long with a bunker and flag. Hereās my dad teaching me to grip the club:
I see the leg action was ingrained early!
Very cool. Seems many people started in the backyard just like we did. Awesome.
This should go in:

ya know whatā¦i totally need to create a little course through our lot for my 5 year old this year. i need to sharpen the chain.
Personally, this is the hole Iām most looking forward to. The Redan Hole #6. Plays 60ish yards and 10 yards uphill.
Everythingās looking AWESOME. Quick question: How long is the redan hole gonna play?
Itāll play 55 yards to a front pin or 66ish yards to a back left pin.
What will be the finished product on that bank? If short grass, nice little penalty of missing short, it would roll all the way back to a collection area.
Good question. We are going to try and seed it with Tall Fescue seed but the slope is really steep. We wouldnāt be able to regularly maintain it at short grass height. Think we will let the grass grow and make some local rule that if the ball is unplayable, you have to hit from the bottom of the hill as to discourage people from trying to hack it out on that slope.
If grass seed doesnāt take, will get some plant-able natural grasses to scatter about.
