Here's my first course beta for all to try out and provide feedback if you'd like. It's in its infancy stages at this point but I wanted to get something out to hear some feedback positive and negative. It's only 4 holes and the name of the course is very vanilla, I realized this after I published. I should've made it more unique so as to differentiate from all other courses with similar names. Ugh.... Anyways, for anyone who tries it out, thank you and let me know what you think.

Karma, if you'd like to take a few pictures I would appreciate it. Thanks.

I played the beta, and to be honest, the course looks promising for a first try. Maybe you could sculpt a bit more the bunkers to give them more life, and the planting could make the course look a bit prettier, but you're in the good path for sure!!

Duly noted, I haven't even begun to do any planting yet, that will be my final step, and I will put more work into the bunkers for sure, thanks for the feedback Pablo, much appreciated!

Just don't go insane with the bunkers either, some slight elevations to make them more attractive
I kind of figured you were at zero planting at the moment, but wanted to let you know it

Biggest thing I learned in sculpting bunkers is that the sculpting typically goes about a foot and a half down automatically so most bunkers you can get away with just putting a flatten brush in with no change in elevation.
Haven't played yet but from what it sounds like it's a good first attempt. Will be sure to tonight.

The inner part of the bunkers is ok... Maybe they're a bit too flat just outside, raising a bit some of the lips improves the visuals of the bunkers a lot IMO

Yep, completely agree with Pablo on the bunkers, if you need some sort of place to start with bunkers look at some of Griff's streams, especially his Invicta ones. Very very good first four holes for a first time designer, but just seems a bit flat especially the bunkers. Having a course with very little elevation is just fine; sawgrass has almost no elevation, but I could see more options for this course if it had more elevation throughout the course.

Thank you guys for the input, I will work on incorporating some elevation throughout the course, and get some more definition to the bunkers.

I somehow published like 4 versions of my beta, I can't seem to delete the ones I don't want. Any help? If I can't delete them no worries. I have done a little more work and now the new beta is titled Pembroke Pines beta for anyone that wants to test it... Thanks in advance...

Believe me, if I could delete my first few courses, I would in a heartbeat lol
