Links Corner Forum

Elite level!? I accidentally started a round in that mode and was horrified at how difficult that is. Forget it, I'm not trying to accomplish anything profound playing Links, it's just for enjoyment. It's the same reason I don't keep playing with persimmon drivers/woods in my real life game (althoug...

While playing a Links course I have not played before, I found that it was really easy to get birdies/eagles and nothing over par. It has me looking back over others that I have played that are like that. There are so many where par's are hard fought to downright impossible, it's nice to play one of...

That's right, they did give score cards for some of the courses in the original Links boxes, didn't they? I used to have them, but looking in my collection (of several hundred cards from courses in Michigan and other places) I don't see them anywhere. Bummer.

The folder titled "Augusta Caddie Book" is empty. Yeah, I noticed that. Not sure what to say about that though, that ZIP is the way it came from this web site back then, I have not modified it in any way. Was it supposed to be empty? Did a later version contain the intended files? :dunno:

Thank you for the recommendation Jeff, I just downloaded it and will give it a try. I now have 568 downloaded courses and files dating back to 199x-something. =:-o

...update: agreed, it is a fine course to play. 4 out of 5 star in my book.

You're in luck, I happened to download those extras back in 2004...

The ZIP file should be available from this link: https://1drv.ms/u/s!Auq14o3lNwM4jENkcWm ... D?e=RjJqY6

Holler if it does not work or if there is a permissions issue.

Oh, I get it. This is supposed to be a 9 hole course but an earlier version of the APCD (1.1?) might have required 18, so they just stuck the back 9 in that one place in the woods. I realized this once I got to #11 and it put me in the same place. That explains all the tee markers. I did manage to f...

While playing this course for the first time, it was smooth sailing until I got to the tee of #10.
Anyone see this before? Maybe I have a beta copy or something?

Maybe I spoke too soon. Here are a couple which suggest they're just 9 holes. I'll check 'em out.

• Little Gardens 9 Hole by Shawn Kobold
• Harding Park Fleming 9-Hole Course by John Brooks

It seems pretty obvious that the APCD requires there to be 18 holes. You cannot create a 9-holer. Right? I certainly haven't seen any in the course list otherwise I'd imagine someone would have done one by now. Or is there some strategy that would allow for this? I thought maybe if you could layout ...
