This course has been in development for awhile now but wanted to wait to make the announcement. 1 week ago today my son Cliff was born (he is sleeping in my arms right now). I have been building this course in his honour and designing it as a fantastical mountain course that will be beautiful yet terrifying and create many memorable moments. I'm pulling out all the stops for designing this monstrosity. Shipping containers of TNT, helicopters with freakin jackhammers hanging from them and a team of highly trained goats to carry thousands of rolls of turf up the mountainside. Pics coming soon.

Have 18 playable hole designs, some of which will probably change a lot. I've started doing some planting on the holes I really like and finally have some screenshots worth sharing. Number 11 is the hole I was designing when my wife went into labour. Number 8 is another fun par 5 with a couple of risk reward options.
I realize this type of course is probably a terrible design choice for this contest so I have a couple of other ideas I've started as backups. I will have to decide later which my actual contest entry will be. Either way it will be a course that I enjoy playing so hopefully some others will like it too.

That’s the biggest little cliff I’ve ever seen.
Edit: Actually read the post. Oh I get it. Haha congrats man!

Back in full production on this course. Making some hard decisions about hole designs and playability, redesigning some holes as needed. This par 3,16th hole is one that looks and plays much better after a pretty big overhaul. Will still be several more weeks to release.

The first Hole in one on this course while playtesting. I wouldn't have sped it up if I thought it would drop, caught me by surprise. The course is getting more polished every day but I still have lots of planting left.

I think we are both going for the "who can scare the CC players the most" contest!
Damn right, keep em terrified. OB on every hole, can't slack off for a second. If you look up and left in the video you can see the clubhouse next to the 18 green above this hole. It has a white knuckle approach shot that is straight up vertigo inducing. Should make some memorable finishes should this ever end up on tour.

Nice shot man! Course is looking good so far. Congrats on your new baby boy!

Final sculpting pass completed on fairways and greens. Still more planting to do, I'm struggling with the black spot glitch so it is slowing things down but it shouldn't be too much longer. Thought it was time to show a wider shot of the plot, this picture shows holes 1,2,4,5,8,9,12,13,14,15,16,17 and 18.
I also have another hole in one, this time from the 16th.

Demonondalinks: your tempo window for perfect is smaller each level you go up there for making it harder to obtain a perfect tempo consistently

stevehal20: surely for those who play with controllers it doesnt change at all?

stevehal20: Can anyone here tell me why my swing dynamics change when i play master or above? I play with a mouse on PC and my swing is perfect tempo. why does it change so badly when i go up a level or two?

sroel908: Nope, like you said...default is whatever the designer sets the green speeds to. That can be any number from 104 to 186.
May 13, 2024 19:55:52 GMT -5

meunier33: I thought default meant exactly between moderate and fast
May 13, 2024 19:42:14 GMT -5
sroel908: Exactly, 158 is the designer-set default speed for Pine Lake CC (Michigan).

meunier33: The default for each course is what the designer puts it at
May 13, 2024 13:29:17 GMT -5
meunier33: 158 is not a usual default speed for greens in CC though
May 13, 2024 13:26:45 GMT -5
sroel908: The weather report says that default, fast, and moderate speeds would be used...the pre-set speeds for those are 158, 134, and 155. If you have certain fittings on, that could change the speeds.
