I don't like to admit when I am wrong but I might be coming around on the templates....just a tad. This course is solid Joe and we will be using it as course #3 tonight on XB Alt shot. Teeing off around 8pmEST. The links will be in the shout box and I will let you know who may have streamed them here as well. Good luck in the contest.
rhin04life, chrisjones1974, and doubtfulobelisk streamed Thank you, and I hope it made a good competition course for you all. 👍

Just played the tour version. Kicked my butt but a ton of fun. Shot a 77 on Master (a bad round, but I holed a stupid putt on 8 for an eagle). One of my new favourite courses, and that says a lot about your designs - the eye candy ain't there (but I know you probably couldn't care less about visuals), but the hole designs and templates are there. I know b101 is doing a template hole series on Youtube soon - but for now, great course and can't wait to hear about your next. Those greens on 187s as well... some ridiculous pins (to people who only put pins on green) but I loved the putts - had some hilarious sloping putts. Also found myself hitting a partial 3 wood from the fairway under a tree on 18 and getting it pretty close to that back pin. I need to learn how to do huge, flat bunkers so seamlessly - no one does it better. Great work Joe! (And apologies for the long comment - had a lot of good things to say. ) (Also, I heard about a little collab with SkinniePost on a Kington-style course, and I can't wait to see that done. Given Bryn Awelon is one of my all time favourites - looking forward to it!)

Tour version was made for the Major Design contest so that's why it has extra challenging slopes, speeds and pins, all still very playable but enough of a nuisance to make Platinum Tour players cry like little girls. Appreciate the comments and I hope you enjoy the future designs as the Raynor courses continue... Me and Skinnie are working on a cracking little hillside course heavily influenced by Kington. Truly one of a kind for this game, in my opinion.
