Everybody has their first course... As we near closer to the new game, I want to end off my TGC1 era with a throwback to my early days in the game. My first ever course was called "Fairbanks National- Fairbanks, Alaska" and it was marked "not approved" into the database (poor Pablo, the guy who had to review that). Anyway, I'm working on a redesign of this course. The original course had good ideas, but was terrible (and I mean TERRIBLE!). I'm currently about 3 and a half holes in, so it'll be a while, but I want to share the project. Btw, I've been having really bad lag issues with this one in the designer, despite there being almost nothing in the plant meter. I'm looking for a few people (especially PS4 and XB1) to check out the first 3 holes of "fairbanks lag test" to let me know how the lag is. Thanks in advance! Here are some before and after pics: 1st Tee Before After 1st Green Before After 2nd Hole (no before pics, sorry) So basically, same layout and hole concepts, but totally revamped. Tell me what you think!

Finished up Hole 4 this morning. Pics coming this weekend, but I think I did a pretty good job with this one, as it takes a bit of inspiration from what might be my most famous hole, hole 3 at IRCC.

Was able to find a "before" picture of the 2nd hole (what an ugly course lol)

Boreal. Plan on pine straw, but I'll wait until the end for that.

Almost 2 months later and I've only made one more hole... let's just say I was focused on other projects
Anyway, Hole 4 Before After You may have read about that 4th hole last May in the "not approved" thread... it's the short par 5 with the fairway WAY too far away from the green lol
I also have holes 3 and 5 done, but I'd rather not post pics, as I don't want you to be able to see every little detail before it's published.
