Hi. My rookie design course entry is finally published. There is no deep special reason for the name Langenthorp, it just came to me one day and sounded different. My intention was to create a realistic course, easy to walk so no need for cart paths, in a natural scenic tropical atmosphere. There are no fancy rock formations, waterfalls, large areas of grasses which don't render in the game until the last nanosecond, or any other extras that cause Xbox soul-sucking swing tempo issues. After the design contest is over I'm likely to be the only person playing the course so I'm designing for myself The course features wide fairways because the challenge begins with the approach shots to open greens, and scoring depends on bringing a good short game. Bunkering is functional, there are no fancy fingerling bunkers or waste areas, no long forced carries, and all par 5 holes are reachable depending on wind and the golfer's abilities. The course contains 3 different tee-sets, with the green and black championship tees set at the same distance on each hole but set at different angles for multi-day variety. There is only one par 5 on the front 9, but the last 7 holes have 3 par 5's for a potential big finish. The pinsets have been randomized across holes so each pinset is approximately equal difficulty. The facilities include a full driving range and short game practice area, with clubhouse patios providing great views of the 9th and 18th greens. ErixonStone, I'm tagging you for your records. Hope you enjoy.

I did a playthrough with some feedback and judging notes. This course was lots of fun and I really enjoyed it. Your course starts around 1:47 I hope you find the feedback useful.
