Other Thoughts:
The course is set on a long and wide moderate slope, with patches and rows of mid-sized trees, mostly evergreens, forcing some shot-shaping.
Holes 1,4,6 are downslope shots of various length and steepness. The trees will generally eliminate one direction as a possibility.
Holes 3,5,8 are upslope shots of various length and steepness. The trees will generally cause some tunneling challenge.
Holes 2,7,9,10 are cross-slopers. Number-2 is open to the midpoint, then a specific window needs to be hit, followed by a right turn. Number is a tight tunnel the first 2/3rds, with the basket then right. Numbers 9&10 are short and require subtle S-turns.
Tees are 4'x8', astrograss atop a wooden platform.
I plan on playing several of the Reyjavik 9ers while here on a week's vacation. Based upon other reviews, I think this course while have more elevation and shape challenges than the others, but we'll soon see.
The title? I aced hole #2 with a Squall, just after landing a few hours earlier.
