No worries at all. I knew full well going in that the greens would turn some off, I wanted to get the ball moving after hitting the surface, but some hills got pretty big. Hitting up those hills with 142 greens is tough. Appreciate the kind words anyway, as it seems he liked it aside from some greens. My next course might be a better fit.

I'll keep stroking your banana by saying this is a great looking track Matt. Really liked that view behind the green on 2 and the city skyline views along the water. Fantastic job. Greens were tough at times but nothing wrong with that at all. This one and Lord Stanley are two really good courses. I gave you a 7 stars to make up for the dipshit 3 rating from a few posts ago.

I loved this course, as has been stated earlier, it is an immediate 5-star and favourite.
The additional workings beyond the tee to green complexes all looked natural, believable and quality. It has a distinctive tone to it.
If this cropped up on tour it would be deserving, pleased to hear will encounter it again in a few weeks on RRCC.
Congratulations and thank you for fine work Matt.

Yeah, great job Matt, top top quality stuff. I think I appreciated it more when I played it the first time, the whisky and the hurricane weren't a great combination of outside factors the second time round! Great fun though and thoroughly enjoyed streaming it with Eric. Contrary to what was said earlier I actually think the greens could do with speeding up a touch, maybe to 160/165ish, but then I'm sure a Tour version is to come?....

Excellent course and awesome job Matt! I particularly liked your fairway bunkers... and the dark green/fairway/ rough colors looked great against the backdrop/base layer. Looking forward to playing this one again in a tournament.

Played this course with Jamie the other night and had trouble shooting even par, so wanted to take another shot at it today. Played along with B.Smooth13 and had a good time getting my revenge on this course. The second half of this stream is El Pistolero.

Did you really create an account on this forum just to complain about a course lol? Also if you haven’t seen a real life course with 4 inches of break in 6 feet, come to the Midwest. No, I did not. I have been playing online golf since the early 2000s and designed for Tiger Woods (my designer name was Danut Golf) as well as World Golf Challenge ( a European release). And if you confuse constructive criticism with complaining, then there is nothing I can do about that. But I thought the whole idea of posting here about a release was to get constructive criticism. Maybe I am wrong. On a side note, I appreciate all the releases for this game, but I hope constructive comments will be welcome.

I’m not saying constructive criticism is bad, it isn’t, but the ratings system in this game is already so broken that a 3 star rating simply for challenging greens is absurd. Some of these designers spend months, maybe even a year creating these courses, and they deserve 5 stars for taking so much time to create excellent courses like this one. Go play Little Brook Manor and compare it to this... lol

It seems like most designers like to use fast greens, but then put pins on bad slopes. But I will go back to my original post and say that no matter what the green speeds are, no ball should roll back 80 feet when stopping short of the hole by 3 feet. If the greens were tweaked to get rid of that, I would definitely give it a 5.

They’re 146 speed... can’t wait to read your review for a course with 187 greens Anyway, I’m done with this because this is an excellent course (one of the best new one out there) and someone took off two stars for bad play... ha!

I only said there was too much slope near the pins on some of the holes. Not sure why you keep attacking me.
