Great job on the second hole. I believe the protee version has a huge ridge on the left past the bunkers that isnt really there, glad you fixed it.

What's your approach to planting in regards to the fescue? You did it so well on St. Andrews and it looks fantastic here as well. I'm working on a course myself that I want to have fescue all over but I can't get it to look right Just spamming the A button (or whatever controller you are using) to plant as many as possible. I use only the browner shades of grasses for the fescue areas, and the green grasses for wetland areas. With St Andrews I made them larger than reality, so they might look funny if you are in the middle of them and are head-high, but from far away it looks more realistic. Highlands also might have the best combination of grasses to use. I'm not as happy with the Countryside selection, they don't blend together as well or as realistically.

The brown heavy rough texture helps give the illusion of fescue even when it's too far away to be shown. This is gonna be a blast to play once finished, it's looking fantastic.

Tried publishing in TGC1 so I could transfer to TGC2, but currently won't publish. I assume it's due to influx in server traffic at the moment, or at least I hope it is that.

I still have to finish watching the 3rd and 4th rounds to chart the putts for the greens. Once I finish that I can begin working on this one again in earnest. The bigger issue is that I have about 8 wip courses in my game right now, and I haven't made any real attempt to prioritize what I am going to work on. At some point I probably have to face the music and whittle it down to one RCR and one fictional at a time.

I think the real answer is to quit my job, free up a little time. I would just need to raise a little money to cover my mortgage and such. Actually, I think that cloning thing sounds more plausible.

I suppose this one is due for an update? Just looking at this again I realized there are no pics in here from TGC2 yet.
I recently finished working on the 10th hole, and I am currently working on the 11th. Clearing the 10th was a big accomplishment, as it has a ton of bunkers and also has a lot of stuff going on around the perimeter of the course. After 11 I'll circle back around and finish the 18th, which I am dreading due to all of the bunkers. After that the home stretch of 12-17 should only take a few weeks, and I can knock this one off of the list.
Some pics should be ready and posted tomorrow night.

"home stretch of 12-17 should ONLY take a few weeks" (emphasis added by jeffbdvs)
Seriously, I hope the level of appreciation for your work (and that of other hard-working designers) gets to be even a tenth of the sweat and tears you put into making these courses. ONLY a few weeks? Sheesh.
Thank you for all your hard work, Craig.
