Blackwolf Run is in my opinion, the toughest course currently available for JNPG and can best be described as a white knuckle ride.  This is especially true if you use RTSM as your control method because if you get an offset where you hit it off the toe or heel when trying to clear one of the many water hazards you will be in the water, guaranteed.  The undulations, slopes, elevation changes and narrow landing areas where an off line shot can find a hazard add to the difficulty.

I just finished the latest Real Timers Country Club tournament where two of the rounds were played at Blackwolf Run and I shot gross scores of 76 and 78 at Pro level.  I feel fortunate to score what I did as I was scrambling both rounds and had to make a number of difficult clutch putts.  I probably hit 7 to 8 balls in to the water over the two rounds and had a 9 on 12th hole in my last round.   Ouch!

That being said, I love the course and the challenges it presents.  It is without doubt one of the most interesting and exhausting courses to play.  Thank you for rendering this gem!

 

 

Charles I concur with all you said and I shot 77-78 and felt like I really played as well as I can and was holding on the whole time.  Just a wonderful course and one of the best we have and without doubt our toughest.
