In 1852 Frederick Law Olmsted completed Central Park in New York City. However, instead of those silly museums and fancy castles- he opted to construct a golf course on the south half of his planting and sculpting masterpiece.

I got my hands on a 36" x 48" Topographic map of the south side of the park, and am attempting to sculpt the park to scale.
This has the potential to be extremely heavy on the plant meter, and I may be a bit over my head on this one.

I'd post a pic or two, but I'm a noob at this and have no idea how to take pics and share from a PS4.

sroel908: Then I guess you might need to find a new game to play, or should go back to playing 2K21 or something. I don't know what else to say that hasn't already been offered as advice to you here dozens of times. Dec 4, 2024 15:16:20 GMT -5 *

meunier33: sroel908: I can play the game as it was designed and I will not improve at all, your controller and connection controls how good you are at the game. Dec 4, 2024 15:05:11 GMT -5

ghostgoblin22: oldmangaming606:spare me the hard work take, im in the oilfield, i work 14-16 hours a day and come home and try and play a fair course and you guys put this crap on the schedule, and yes i haven't been playing, just like half of the members of tgc Dec 4, 2024 13:41:18 GMT -5

bubbadave: Uggh. Boards are starting to get spammed. Dec 4, 2024 12:32:49 GMT -5

sroel908: meunier33: You've admitted you don't play 2K23 as its designed, so it shouldn't be a surprise that you're struggling with parts of it. Dec 4, 2024 9:20:08 GMT -5 *

trailducker: Hit more Greens In Regulation Dec 4, 2024 0:13:50 GMT -5

meunier33: The biggest stat that stands out to me in this game is that my GIR% is only 61, and has been for all of 2K23. I'm not sure how to improve this. Dec 4, 2024 0:04:39 GMT -5

indaho: Ditto!! Dec 3, 2024 17:51:38 GMT -5

OldManGaming606: ghostgoblin22 Dude, How unappreciative do you have to be to not acknowledge the time and effort the people associated with TGCTours invest for us to enjoy the game. Nobody is forcing you to play. But the verbal abuse is unacceptable. Dec 3, 2024 15:52:54 GMT -5

meunier33: Im seeing a lot of new courses recently that have greens that will roll your ball off the green even if you are very close to the hole Dec 3, 2024 13:33:41 GMT -5

OldManGaming606: Some of us struggling putting on greens regardless of how slow or fast the greens are. Nov 30, 2024 17:54:15 GMT -5

meunier33: 15th hole at Dancing Nun has an error. The light rough above the water hazard is marked as part of the hazard instead of land. Nov 29, 2024 23:04:55 GMT -5

sandgroper: I can hear too 😂 Nov 29, 2024 20:10:23 GMT -5

Violinguy69: Hear hear Nov 27, 2024 15:54:24 GMT -5

bubbadave: Truthfully. Give me a 170 over a 135 any day. Nov 26, 2024 17:43:11 GMT -5

sroel908: And as someone who's rangered/scheduled hundreds of courses, trying out a wide range of conditions, I can say with certainty that green speeds do have an impact and definitely matter. Nov 18, 2024 15:57:48 GMT -5 *

sroel908: Green firmness is more about how the ball interacts with the putting surface when you hit an approach into it. A soft green is more receptive, and will allow more backspin than a firm one. A firm green will have less bite and more rollout. Nov 18, 2024 15:57:00 GMT -5

meunier33: I have seen 135 greens that putt like they are 170. Therefore, we can conclude that green speed does not matter. Nov 18, 2024 15:31:35 GMT -5

meunier33: Why isn't there a green firmness meter on the score bug? Green firmness matters much more than green speed. Nov 18, 2024 15:28:26 GMT -5

keyan: thanks Nov 17, 2024 18:40:12 GMT -5
