About 75% complete and just published as "PGA test" at the moment..... Layout complete, most of the terrain is complete, planting is mostly complete just some fine tuning (feedback around planting as I struggle a bit with the finer details for a real feel), fairways/greens/tees complete, bunkers are set out but I need to sculpt them, Feedback would be great. This is my 2nd course after Pacific dunes another real course I did. Went for medium firmness on fairways and medium firmness and med/fast speed on greens, still have to do all the rockery around the water hazards that are a feature of this course and further improve the general landscape but time and patience is getting the better of me and I just want to play it with some wind and get some feedback from you guys... Hope you enjoy it so far.... It's a desert theme but because the course is so lush for the most part I have decided to flick the heavy rough and just run with the light rough for the entire course purely for presentation to keep it as green as allowable.... Need palm trees in boreal theme!!! And others.

Have taken some screenshots as requested of a few parts of my course and now it seems the only place I can upload them is to Facebook..... Can't select where I'd like them to go like this thread.... Do I have to take photos off my tv on my phone to then select photos out of my album and attach or am I missing something. I'm normally pretty coherent with technology...

I have not played, sorry, thought it was just a work in progress, I usually don't stick around if no pics it is published as pga test but will be named properly for final version. Just wanting feedback and suggestions on the landscape really. All the main trees and palms are down just some rockery around the water edges and so forth and a final fine tune. All the slopes work well and looks pleasing to the eye. Worth a game |

No love for this course. Thought a couple of the top designers might take time out and have a round. Great layout and all with the final 5 holes sculpted up against a rugged mountain range with a canal flowing through. Think I've nailed the feel for the course. I'll be recording the action this weekend and sitting down over the next week to finalise all the small details. All the greens and mounding are accurate to the information I have on hand at the moment which is quite good and detailed so should be a top recreation hopefully in the communities eyes to and hopefully a tour regular moving forward once released like the WGC matchplay if that ever makes it into TGC as a lot of good scoring opportunities with the length of course but some tricky puts if not on right tiers or areas

Thanks karma good man. Nice pics as always. It's coming along well. Have since added to the planting on 17 and it's looking the goods. Refined a lot of mounding outside of the fairways and greens to and partway through sone rock detailing. Another week or so away from total completion and true name publication

Just played your course. It seems very nice. I'm trying to create a course as we'll but I need to practice with the tools.
One thing I noticed there seemed to be quite a few palm trees and also another kind (maybe bush). I do agree that 17 is a beautiful hole. When I played though the long sand trap on 17 it seemed to have a wierd shadow or something at the edge toward the green. However I am no expert so maybe that is an intentional slope.
I'll play it again once you rename it. Good Job overall though.
If you take screenshots with PS4 the only way I found to copy them is using a USB stick. But the USB stick must be formatted with Fat32.

But the USB stick must be formatted with Fat32. yeah that edge of bunker was something I missed when I redid the hole for the 2nd time. I added to the front of the green as my first measurement was wrong. And shifted the front edge of the bunker to and forgot to redo the the edge inside bunker now. It's all sorted now and looking good for the release |
