How do you get the planting on your holes to look good at a distance?
Playing the beautiful Scarlet Inn course this week in CC-B, and noticed that on the tee you can see the long grass and flowers extend all the way to the green.
Both my previous course and my current work in progress have large grassy areas - but on both those courses, you almost have to be in the grass before you can really see it. I feel like I might be missing a fundamental technique here!

Just have to make it large where you can. As long as the player doesn't get too close they'll never know the grass is 20 feet tall. It's a balancing act to be sure

It's a balancing act to be sure Does that work if you make the grass 20 foot tall, and then bury it so only 2 ft is showing? Will the game still load it sooner, or will you get that silly look where the grass just starts to pop up as you progress down the hole?

The render distance is different on each of the objects (especially grass). Bushes and trees for instance will show up everywhere. (If you use some bushes in between the grass it will also looks better on a distance).
Grass will appear on different distances. Be sure to test out the different grass types and pick the ones that has the furthest render distance.

Is there anyway to change the size of grasses in the multi-plant tool? I only seem to be able to get it to plant grass of the default size.

The only way I've found is to multiplant, then break the cluster, then resize. If there's another way I'd like to hear it as that way is so time consuming it hurts
