Would love to see other peoples sketches of fictional courses or hole ideas, so post them if you got them! My sketch of Lassiter Country Club is below. This is the first time I took pencil to paper for an entire course and I found it very useful. Minor changes were made and more detail was added once I started transferring the sketch into the designer, but overall I stayed pretty true to what you see here. Flipping the 9's was the biggest change. This course is published, but I'm open to feedback if anybody has any ideas on how the course could be improved for future releases.

SkinniePost you promised sketches! This is what I do when I get bored at work. Just drawing a routing that goes around and through itself as opposed to orderly moving from one hole to the next. Thought about doing my US Open course this way but realized I need to see the land before I design the holes, I don't work as well trying to fit elevation onto flat holes after the fact.

I saw this and found it similar to something I sketched out almost 4 years ago ...I never did much with it .... but it made me look at it again ... which is cool ... I love doodling up courses, before I start into the editor ....

That's a very similar style to my "pre-tgc" sketches RJ. Always had trouble getting them to translate to the game.

Oh yeah. It’s a great quick way to get your brain thinking outside of the 2D. I find I often discover cool hole concepts this way. It’s funny you say you struggle to translate this to TGC. I find I work in almost the exact same way digitally. It does take some messing around with the designer though to develop the skill to do exactly what you want. I’m still learning new ways of doing things. That's a very similar style to my "pre-tgc" sketches RJ. Always had trouble getting them to translate to the game.

If I’m ever bored at work or have free time without access to TGC, I’m literally always sketching courses. I’ll have to share some later, though I have to say, compared to what I’ve seen in this thread, you guys are way more detailed than me haha

This may make me weird but I sketch IN the designer. Sometimes I’ll just make some bunkers or a green or some hills. Play with some views... I’ll make some general ideas on paper but I’ve found translating from paper to the game is harder for me to do. It’s easier for me to put my ideas into the game rather than paper first

I can't draw to save my life so you won't see any that I've done. My daughter is nearly as good as me at drawing... and she's 3.

It’s easier for me to put my ideas into the game rather than paper first I'm (sort of) the same. Lots of measuring tool doodles for me. Though this thread is making me want to break out my sketch pad again...
