Alright everyone, hole 17 and 18 are coming soon, and then we'll really be in the homestretch. As you can see from all of my pictures, I have done the layout and routing, carefully measured out widths of fairways and greens for consistency (better than my first course), and laid down all of the textures. There isn't a single planting done yet, which is why it looks so bland and unfinished, so please don't judge that aspect yet. But I need your help.
I've looked at this course for so long now I think I'm losing my mind. I'm not even sure anymore if it's any good. I have a couple questions:
-do you like the separate circular tees, or would it be better to shape the rough all around the hole teeing area?
-I have provisions in place for modified cart paths (from tee to fairway and from green to next tee), but I can't decide if I want them on this course or not. I definitely didn't want them up the middle of the holes. Would you do paths, or maybe do a line of light rough from tee to fairway?
-I purposely designed this course with only light rough (6 yard width beside the fairways, and more lenient around the bunker complexes and greens). Would you prefer to see a band of heavy rough beyond that? It'll make the course appear more green and less brown, so that's something to take into consideration. This isn't mean to be a true desert course, as I have themed it more as a canyon course, but I don't want to "overgreen" the landscape either. What's the right balance?
I'll be releasing a private beta soon to those who request it. I've been lucky to have some faithful followers, so I want to invite specific feedback from those folks too. Let me know if you want the beta name and I'll message you when it's released.
Thanks!
