This is not my course. And I can’t seem to find the designer here on the forums or any completed course thread for it. So I’m doing it for him. I’m on my phone and can’t get the pics that karma4u took for tgctours.com to paste over, so I apologize. But maybe he can bless this thread with the photos in case you don’t believe my PSA. Shoutout to moneyman273 for scheduling this during his 24k society playoffs. This was super fun. I think it would be a great fit for any TGC Tours level of play too ErixonStone catcherman22 toddfather Designer: Thomas Petrocelli Xbox gamertag: TigerW00dsy11 or something like that Description of the course from: www.tgctours.com/Course/Details/21992This playable resort course is set on rolling inland dunes that provide a dramatic setting. Unlike anything I have ever designed, this course is partially influenced by David McLay Kidd's Mammoth Dunes as well as Tom Doak's Tara Iti. Like both of those tracks, though Olde Mill winds through some massive natural landforms, it is easily walkable. Strategy is absolutely paramount: play off the tee should be dictated by gaining the best angle into greens that are receptive from specific angles. The course is designed to be enjoyable for all regardless of score, and I hope you agree.

Played this one for rangering. Very cool and unique look. The surfaces, planting, and lighting really work well together. Have to be open to lumpy bumpy terrain

Would have preferred flat tee boxes, but apart from that it was an interesting course. Colour scheme combinations I've never seen before.

Nice course' liked the textures and the overall planting' a little bit more care around the clubhouse and a few of the Tee boxes had a bit of a slant to them' But those little things didn't take away from the enjoyable round of golf..

Many thanks for the stream jimgem and to everyone ( toddfather meyo jwtexan and the rest), happy to hear you enjoyed it! Sorry about being a little shady in terms of my presence: I didn't figure out how to put images into a thread until a couple weeks ago so, unfortunately, not in time for Olde Mill. Thread for my followup to Olde Mill (which JW just stumbled across): tgctours.proboards.com/thread/21692/matador
