I just took a break from designing my own course and saw your post. Love the course man...it's great. The starting 3 holes especially I liked. The terrain on 3 (I think it was 3) was really cool. The raised up green on 2. Some great bunkering and rough-work throughout. Plus some cool fenced off areas. Greens were very fair, no easy tee shots. Wish there was something meaningful I could offer as criticism, but I couldn`t see much. Maybe the tee box areas mostly looked the same? The holes were varied and exciting but the tee boxes maybe not as much. That's all I got.
Very well done, course made me feel like I was on a quick vacation. Shot 61 and rated it a 9.

Thanks man, glad you liked it! I take your point on the tee boxes as well, will try to work on that on my next course

mrooola I don't know if you check these forums for ideas for the challenge circuit but this is a must play for the cc. A fantastic course from start to finish which will suit all tiers. It might not challenge the better players but if this is not a tour worthy course, I have not idea what. For people not in the cc, play it anyway. It will not disappoint.

Great course, enjoyed a round in high winds this afternoon. The front 9 didnt go well as my game in the wind has been poor of late but managed to get a good run going in the home stretch to post up a respectable score in the end.
Some of the holes on this are really wonderful to look at, undulations are crafted beautifully and in spite my poor play i kept wanting to see what view i was going to be treated to from shot to shot.
The combination of tropical theme, mountain backdrop, dusk lighting and clouds provided an exotic vibe. The mountains sculpted more in the foreground might be a bit much in places but equally where it works, and it often does, it all comes together brilliantly.
Ace bunkers throughout too.
I'll be back for another stab at a decent score and will take a look at your other course too. Quality stuff here.

I do agree with the previous opinions, this is a very interesting course, I really liked the greens, very well built. And had a very decent score (-3) with the up to 15 mph winds I had

Had my eyes on this in the wip threads already. Wheels are in motion.

Have to agree with Dan.
This is very very tour worthy.
Despite not having a great round due to high winds, easily one of the best courses i have played on the game. Well done.!!
