Ok, so why are you worried about what to do with it? Send Sage a note, tell him the file name, and let him worry about it.

Some of us have a newer version of this course, some of us don't. I thought the latest, greatest file version would benefit everyone. A '4th fix' file tells me there were a number of issues with the original course file. When did I say I was worried about anything?? f you don't want the latest course file, don't download it.

I remember what happened now - the latest version of this course was posted to the old LC Course Corner board, close to when we moved to the new version. That thread is now gone. So some Linksters didn't get the latest version, and LC was never updated.

I had it saved too, didnt bother saving the older publicly available file personally. Very beautiful course I remember with wonderful planting by Sage but sadly boring to play with the enormous gentle fairways and some flat greens if I recall correctly.
Based on a great course in Oregon. https://www.bandondunesgolf.com/resort-info
It's in my region of the US, so it's always been a favorite of mine :smile:

Love this course. Have replayed the 2020 US Amateur several times. The only thing missing is the fog! :thumbup:

For some reason I never had this course before, but I really like it (having played only the first five holes so far). I just need to get my timing back, so I'm not slicing every shot. The gulls are a nice touch, makes me wish there was a huge update from MS so they're flying around. I usually don't like links courses, but I like this one, maybe because it doesn't feel like it's "pure" links.
