Huge thanks to Terry Grayson for taking me up on my random request to work his magic on this "fun" course build I had going on, and that's exactly what he did - btw when I say random, I mean random, I think it started from both of us being in a twitch stream chat and me throwing out the idea to him, which he graciously agreed to. His vision and expertise in executing on that vision transformed the course in a fantastic way...funny how that happens when you get someone who knows what they're doing, and is damn good at it, to plant and create visuals! Bottom line, the course wouldn't be what it is without all of his work, and I can't say how much I appreciate the collaboration.
This is a links-style course, but not in the most absolute traditional definition of the term. Default green speed is 182 but course was designed on 187, which is a perfectly "legal" speed to set for an event. Along that same "what could a tournament setup do here" thought line, I've created 2 sets of tournament tees - white and black - for event organizers should they want to switch things up for a round or two (along with 2 additional shorter sets for those who prefer that type of gameplay). The white tees largely mirror the black tees, with a few select holes playing at shorter distances, again just to mix it up a bit if you so choose.
I'll keep this one short a sweet - hope you enjoy your round(s), and again, huge credit to Terry for his amazing work on this plot. Have fun!

Yep that's exactly how it went in that stream..
Really enjoyed working on this one even thought it took me a bit to get the style and look I wanted... Tore up everything after hole 7 and started over.... I think you did an outstanding job here Justin and appreciate you letting me be a part of it
Thanks again

Just finished my first round. Great job guys. The plot routing and hole layouts felt good while playing. Greens and bunkers were solid. Terry's object choices works really well for the draw distance of this game, which really tied the course together. I'm gonna steal some of the techniques used by both of you guys... just a heads up. Props on a very solid publish fellas!

It’s kind of a travesty that this course is not handicapped yet😢. I guess publishing during a contest window will do that. This course is absolutely beautiful! It’s very much a “make your own trouble” type of course which is right up my alley. There are too many things that are done really well on this course to single them all out but the redan-style green on the long par 4 3rd was one of my favorite features. It was very refreshing to play a 500+ yard par 4 that was gettable with some imagination and execution rather then just being a dick punch hole😁. My only critique (and it’s hella nitpicky) is that I felt the fairway/light rough textures sort of clashed with the browned out heavy rough. Obviously, it didn’t effect playability ( which was superb), it was just a little visually jarring from an otherwise spectacular course. Still a favorite and a 5 ⭐️ as I feel that textures alone are not a reason to down rate a course. Great job and keep up the good work 👍🏻!

Definitely agree with this and tend to agree with the clash of colours. As I have scoured this forum for courses I've come across a number of courses where the contrast is just not authentic. A smooth transition in colour is important for authenticity of the visual appeal of a course. I don't think Hemsbry was too bad. Have seen some horrors though! @ B.Smooth13 I did favourite this one I enjoyed it so much. Very memorable.

Unbelievable a course this good is not handicapped on PS. I think that speaks to how many good courses are being put out regularly. Enjoyed my round here, excellent work gentlemen.
