"Galleigh Links" is the final course of the Galleigh trio. This is a very playable course, but the undulating greens will require some thought off the tee to access the pins. This is the Championship Course at Galleigh, but still has similar quirks to the two other courses at Galleigh. I started working on this plot right after playing PithyDoctorG's St. Cyrus for the first time, so that's where the inspiration for the three courses came from. The course defaulted to the wrong conditions..... again. Put this sucker up to very firm for a better links experience. Give it a go and let me know how you get on! Hole 2 - 105 Yard, Par 3Set on the outskirts of the property, hole 2 is a short par 3. Miss left and you'll either be chipping over a rock wall, or you'll be retrieving your ball from the farmer's field and playing 3 off the tee.Hole 7 - 319 Yard, Par 4
Now this might be my favourite hole I've created. This short 4 can sometimes be reached with a 3-Wood. It also features a gigantic fairway, allowing the player to choose exactly where they want to play their second shot from. With OB long of the green, the player should find a good layup spot, however going for the green in one is always too tempting for me. Hole 9 - 562 Yard, Par 5 The second of three Par 5's, hole 9 is a good chance to pick up one or two. The tee-shot can be tricky, however, if downwind, the player can fly the gorse and leave an iron to the pencil green. If going for the green in two, the player will have to decide whether to fly the ball to the green, or land it short and use the undulations to feed the ball down the green. Also, a reminder that on this plot are two already published courses, a par 3 course ("Galleigh Short Course") and an executive 18 ("Galleigh Wright's Course")

Another gem on this plot Adam! I think you're the first person I know of to successfully fit 3 courses into one plot on this game. And I still have a soft spot for the pitch & putt here, because it is one of the most fun skins game courses in TGC2019.

It was fun to do, but the plant meter made the finishing touches a bit of a task!

Really enjoyed both full 18s, interesting designs and a welcome break from some of the courses we play week in and out.
Nice job!

I was going to recommend playing them in that order in the original post, but thought not a whole lot of people would be committing three rounds to the plot!

Finally got round to playing this today (amazing what finishing a contest course will do for your ability to play new courses). This is one of my top five favourites in the game, no kidding. So quirky, so cool, really made me think and just looked and played dynamite. Literally laughed out loud at the ninth green. 5 is probably my favourite, but I also loved the driveable par four on the front nine and all of the par threes (even if I made 5 on two of them...). And the thumbprint on a short four. And the hilarious false front on 15. Just made me chuckle the whole way round and love it. I could go on and on. Will be back for more plays - can see this being a go to course for me. Right up there with Falling Water and Necedah in my favourites and there are very few that make that level. Quality stuff.
Group E should be mighty afraid!
