Looking forward to this. Really liked the green/fringe textures integrated with bunker sand.
Thanks mate

Utterly superb.

Brilliant work, hit my drive onto the cart path right of the 5th fairway & my free dop was a couple of hundred yards back of where it landed but some great work all around this course & many thanks for your efforts

Terrific course. Plays really well. A welcome addition to the Links course library!

that is weird, not sure how I'd fix that. was thinking the cart paths were marked free drop except for the 'junction' sections.

I just played my first round and, even more than the course (which was great) I appreciated the "package" that came with it. In real life this course was, in effect "resurrected from the dead" in 2003. Thanks to Eric for another great "Real" course.
I noticed some different textures for rough and greens-did you do them yourself? (I'm too tired to go back through the posts).
I understand that the President's Cup will be there in 2026-the only thing missing are spectators and tournament objects...

its all on the beginning post, yes I made all the textures except for the rough, which was Curt Simm's from Wentworth. Presidents Cup in 2009, PGA 2020, rnds 1-3 pin sheet included, 2005 Amex Champ won by Tiger. Currently host the International Crown for LPGA, a match-play event, so you get a good look at it there. Lots of good PGA highlight videos on Utube.

I really enjoyed playing this course. I think I was attracted to the great contrast on it with the fairway color and the darkness of the tops of the cypress trees. The sprayed-out sand out of the bunkers was a great touch and the textures are top notch. Felt a bit like a spiritual relative of the original MSFT Valderrama which I also love. Cheers -

thanks, good to hear some reviews. A good comparison also on Valderama, a course that deserves a nice re-touch, though its much shorter and tighter. hard to remember playing it, might have to break it out and look at it again.
