Hey Guys!
I'm not much for WIP threads and I haven't made a course thread since TGC2 was released I believe, but I got back to the designer after having a bit of a break and entered the OG Classic Design series started by clv.
It all started off as an attempt do create a course inspired by Gozzer Ranch. For those who is unfamiliar with the course as I was it's a private course located in Idaho US. My research skills are limited at best and I haven't found much useful information at all. What I've found was some pictures of Golf Digest and 3D generated fly by views from vuemygolf that seems greatly inaccurate to put it mildly. So if any of you have ever been there and took some pictures please do share.
Now. As mentioned it started as an Inspired by project. 2 holes in I decided to start over and actually use the layout of the real course as base for this project. Now.. I've never attempted an RCR and this was never going to be that, but I do regret not following the actual layout of the real course. So to fit the plot I now have 16 layouts from Gozzer Ranch and 2 designs by myself.
This thread will be me updating a few images and maybe compare to the real thing. It won't look the same, but hopefully there are some features that one might feel are similar.
I probably should have though through what I was supposed to write in this post and what kind of message I wanted to send. I did not so I'll just end my ramblings right here.

I do apologize for the size of some of these pictures. Hole 1. I have some work to do with the planting, but for now I wan't to keep it a bit modest to make sure it dosen't lag too much on consols and I don't max out the plant meter on the front 9. The picture of the real course is taken from one of the front tees and I haven't incorporated them all. Tried to snap one of mine from a similar angle. Lighting probably needs some work, but it's impossible to get this mid day look to work in the game. Still haven't found any pictures or scetches of the green complex, so not sure what I'll do with it

Played around with the lighting a tad to represent the real picture a bit just for fun. I wan't totally against this look, but more tweaking needed. Anyway. This is from the front tees on hole number 2. Not a very dramatic tee shot seen here and once again. No info on greens. No pictures of it either Sculpting work yet to be done along the fairway, but it won't be like the real one as this is a vide game and I'd like to avoid having the second shot looking in to the fairway instead of the green Don't mind the squiggly cart path please...
