Definitely bummed to rename it and have different versions out there. It clogs the TGC system with slight variants of the same course, plus I was going to create Thu-Sun versions too, so there's another 4. Not to mention when people search "Courses by Designer" it will include these throwaways. Lesson learned I guess, don't publish until 100% positive there aren't problems.
Pablo - I appreciate the advice, I do agree, I look forward to designing my next layout. The reason I'm trying to fix this one is because I had hopes of getting it used by Loughrey or others, or possibly TGC Tours if I'm lucky. But there were a couple things I HAD to fix to have any chance of that. One hole wouldn't have been usable in high winds, so I didn't want to have over 100 hours invested in a design that people stayed away from. But outside of that, I will take your advice and keep plugging away.
Also, Griff had some design ideas I agreed with, so I adjusted a few slopes in a few areas to improve sight lines and adjusted two greens to improve chances of being multi-pinned fairly.
I'm loving the help from everyone, keep the advice coming!

And BTW, as you can see stickied in completed courses "please, only submit one version of your course" The good thing of this is doing what you prefer, if you want to improve this course, do it. I was giving you my opinion.

That's only a limitation to avoid having seven times the same course. Just promote here the different versions, and if the course is good, as this is (currently playing it) it will get plays

I need something that will look okay on the list when I put (Thu), (Fri) etc behind the four versions for multi-pinning (which I'm going to do for practice, even if it's not approved by TGC). Do I go with Overfield C.C. then? Or rename it completely?

I wouldn't rename it completely -- that'll just cause confusion. The easiest would seem to be Overfield C.C. (Thu), etc. On a different note... Just back in the clubhouse after going -11 on Overfield! Kate, Julia, and Ines were rather impressed. All in all a very nice course, Eric. You've already got lots of feedback from others on the touch ups, so I'll just say you did great on your first design.

There were differing opinions on what to do about the naming, so I mixed the ideas and renamed it, but not completely. Who knows, we'll chalk it up to a noob mistake and going too quick with the publishing/submitting to TGC.
It's now published as a final version as "Overfield C.C.".

plus I was going to create Thu-Sun versions too, so there's another 4 I suggest waiting to see whether any schedulers wanted to use the course before embarking on a multi-pin effort. The schedulers might have some ideas about how they would want the course to play, and things to look out for. If you're inclined to update the course based on the feedback you received, by all means, do it. I would suggest the new course name be something like "Overfield C.C. TOUR Ed." and then getting some feedback privately about it before multi-pinning. And don't worry about the "More by Designer" menu. Most of the designers have a bunch of versions of each course. Every course I've put on tour has its own "TOURBETA" course where I made some minor changes (such as extending/widening a fairway or removing a particular tree). I wanted to make sure all 4 versions of the course were the same in terms of features. I didn't want there to be a tree on Sunday where there wasn't one on Saturday.

Oops, wish I had seen this before I published just now... that was a good idea too. I need to SLOW DOWN. Haha

There's a new thread under completed courses called "Overfield C.C." now. Very sorry for the confusion everyone, and the rookie mistake on my part. Ugh!
