Lighthouse Isle

Wanted to say thanks to Sage for this course, I think it is very well done. I don't play much Links anymore, maybe a handful of rounds a year. But I still check out Links Corner regularly and download new courses that look interesting. Sometimes I play a round right away, sometimes not. The two scre...

Re: The Lido

I've read that the Lido will have a private membership, but there will be some public tee times made available to guests of the Sand Valley resort. Really cool project. A guy named Brian Zager played a key role in converting the digital model of the golf course made in The Golf Club into a format th...

Re: Wildcat Golf Club-The Lake Course-Houston Texas by Sage Vanni

I also seem to recall that courses that have had the non-reg box ticked also do not compile or record statistics during a normal round. So you get to the end of a normal round and the stats and/or scorecard look different than usual. Going off of memory from a long time ago... But also definitely re...

Re: My return to Links 2003....... maybe

Hi Lez, welcome back - good to see you here again! It's clear the loss of your brother affected you deeply - understandably so - but I'm glad that returning to Links might give you some comfort and enjoyment again. The Links and APCD community will be happy to have you around, and having you contrib...

Re: Red Sky

I've had this happen with the course I have worked on, and I know that Lez Marwick also observed the issue - he called it a "pink mess." In my experience it occurs exclusively when in practice mode (never in normal play mode) and especially after moving the ball around to various spots to ...

Re: Courses Lost & Found

Would hope if someone knows Jeff Howes, he might still have these on his HD. I only took a brief initial look at the site so far, but I may consider making an attempt to seek contact and asking about these courses some day (if they actually are full Links courses) if no one else does it. If someone...
