Not far south past the mixing bowl of I-95 lies the variable hilly fairways and multi-tiered greens of the Forest Greens Golf Course.

Course designer Clyde Johnston's distinct approach of intertwining the natural curves of the land with the ample towering woodlands is the perfect combination of true risk reward golf. The dense tree lined fairways, elevated tees, and undulating greens bring to fruition a classic east coast style course design that  will give every club in your bag a "true test of game".

Amigos favorite Hole: On a layout that exudes a varying array of styles, we felt the 552-yard par-5 18th had a perfect mixture of all the design qualities of  the course.

This demanding uphill left dogleg starts off with a tee shot challenged by two well placed fairway bunkers that come in to play. The reason these bunkers are so menacing is because part of the left fairway is cut off by the bend in the dog left.

So if you can't keep it in the right side of the fairway, your forced to hit a lay-up shot for your second. Then your third shot is a much longer approach shot to an uphill green.

The uphill rolling fairway has two lay-up plateaus that are perfectly positioned for your second shot. For those unable to reach the green in two and for those with any doubt in ball striking ability your best bet is to play conservative on keeping the ever present potential damage at a minimum.

On a humid August Sunday, Forest Greens had severely wilted our golfing sprit by the time we reached the 18th. But being the steady and every optimistic group, we geared up with all good intentions to finish the day on a positive note.

But like most of our day, both tee shots were polar opposites with one in the right fairway bunker and the other far left. From this disastrous start the rest of the hole was none to pretty and in the end we finished with two double bogeys.
