Links Corner Forum

I have not played other golf games for awhile thanks to issues with Windows 10. I seem to remember that one or two of them showed what your arc trajectory to target was depending on which club was chosen and this was a good aid when shooting over trees. Recently saw a post somewhere here in Links th...

Ian Wells would be able to give you this answer. In old forum remember him getting advice from another designer Duckhook, who told Ian that original APCD designer was set up entirely opposite than way end result turned out.

6,950 total yardage comes from Wikipedia. Hole #9 tee is not way back, so have to layup not to drive into pond in Sage's version.

Also where pin locations are set is a factor to be taken under consideration. There are some courses where...

Course is listed as par 70 and 6950 yards long. Could add say 10 yards for par 3's, 20 yards for par 4's and 30 yards for par 5's making course play 340 yards longer at 7290. Not sure if some holes require lay ups for drives as have to use 3 woods at most, otherwise run out into trouble. If so that ...
