Chip:

I suppose those two holes do look like the two at The Valley Club from the aerial.  I never spend much time looking at maps of the courses I'm building, though, so I never noticed.

The topography is WAY different than The Valley Club.  #10 is 60 or 80 feet downhill from the tee to the dip in front of the green, then back up 20 to the putting surface.  #11 is around the rim of the valley off the tee to a ridgetop fairway, with the right half of the fairway about 15 feet lower than the left (and invisible from the tee).

It will be a good summer if I get back there for a few days.
