This great old course has been released by Mr. Brooks! :)

Is this a BETA or the final?

[Duglis]

It says Beta on the course release page and that's the title of the thread I made here. So, I would guess it is a BETA! :)

Newer version with hole previews now live.

yep it's only a beta - there are one or two things that need altering yet!

Cheers and thanks

Any chance of getting crowds since this is a championship course? It might help frame the holes a little . It's pretty wide open out there. Man, those bunkers are deep.

Tombstones instead of trailer park? Or is that really there? :)

[brooks2345]

It's a caravan site and there are loads of caravans (that's why I went in 2D not 3D - 350-odd 4-way shadows would have been a real problem.) Unfortunately only tombstones in the graveyard by the 1st (hence the name). Spectators? Maybe, but you'd need stands etc. I'll think about it for the final.

6ih green had right to left putt from about 6ft ball rolled off the green 40ft away some other dodgy greens too other than that nice job

[brooks2345]

Thanks Pete - will look at greens for final - BUT the greens are really tricky - and that's before the wind starts blowing!

Cheers
