Technically, a golf course cannot be copyrighted or trademarked. It's the name "Augusta National" and/or the use of the word "Augusta" (when affiliated with golf) that is Trademarked. They even have "11,12,13" under trademark. Don't forget Magnolia. That word has been deleted from game and the word Masters. Probably soon Azalea.

That's what I figured. So there is no legal basis for them to force the removal of the course if it isn't called Augusta. More likely the that of losing the PGA tour licence if they don't do what they are told The Masters is an Invite golf tourney. Not a part of the PGA. I could be wrong but i believe that's how it is.

Believe the easiest way at this point is sort all courses by most played and go down and find it. Think it has like 50K plays. I think you can search 'Blunderbuss' and then look at more by designer as well... Jeff, I tried this and it didn't come up as one of his other courses.

If anyone has the name can you PM me? I am on PS4 if that matters. Thanks in advance.
There is a beta called ANGC but I don't think it is finished.

I hope one of the society's is going to select Augusta for the masters week, then everyone can play in the tourney and add it to there favourites . Or maybe that's not allowed?

Don't need to start a round.
When you select a course you can filter by courses favorited by friends.
Do anyone on my PS4 friends list can go in any time and find the course.
Play it once then mark it as favorites then all your friends will be able to find it.

Actually, cancel that last post! I have a society called 'RRCC Course #1' on Xbox. RRCC may still return one day.... But in the meantime, I have just set a one round event on ******** ********. Hop in, play the round, favourite the course. Xbox players only, you'll need someone to do similar on the other consoles. Pin 4, default settings. I might have a round myself.... You don't even have to play the round Jamie. Maximum Daily on PS4 played one of them at the beginning of January. I saw it last week and clicked on course details when viewing that event, favourited from there without even playing.

How can they create a copyright infringement over created content, its basically art.
What we do on designer is art, are HB now censoring art to appease a gang of women hating cross burners?

It doesn't matter whether HB is right/wrong about censoring the course; it's a matter whether HB has the resources to fend off that suit (spoiler: it doesn't). For what it's worth, Augusta owns the property, its unique features, Masters branding. Because they do own the brand, they control how it's used. Individual designers can claim "fair use", but HB is openly marketing a tool, for sale, where courses are created, and in fact, Augusta has been faithfully replicated. Augusta can claim that sales of TGC are propelled by this set of facts which would result in trademark violations and millions of dollars in fines and royalties. Would Augusta necessarily win that suit? Maybe, maybe not. The safest course of action is for HB to delete the course from the game completely and bar any access to it at all. That isn't what they've chosen to do. Instead, theve chosen to hide all references to it, but leave it available as an Easter egg for the die-hards.
