Welcome to New Jersey National. NJ National is a fictional version of Charles Bank's course at Forsgate Country Club. I've followed the routing, par, templates and environment as close as possible to the real thing - but with added length and and hazards on many of the holes. So this course is a fictional version of Forsgate, not an RCR.
The plays as a par 71 and stretches out to 7,093yds from the back tee's. This version of the course plays quite easy so that players of all skill levels can enjoy it. Although this is a template course there are many holes here that are original designs. This course also offers up a different look to most template courses. There aren't any geometric shapes except for a very small amount of bunkers. The fairways, greens and bunkers are mostly curved. The bunkering on the course is severe on many holes, some extremely deep, tight cut bunkers can really wreck your score if you're not accurate with your approach shots.
I'll be looking to release the TOUR version as soon as I can. The Tour version adds 200yds to the course, firmer and faster greens, tougher pins and a tournament atmosphere.
I'll leave a real life Forsgate flyover below for you to check out the course and compare to how I've interpreted it for a fictional version, and for the order of template's.

Thanks for the pictures, Karma. True that about the beer, Bada Bing on call. This course was also frequented by Tony Soprano himself before he was "capped."

I feel really bad that the camera didn't render the bloom. These shots on monitor looked superb with all the color. Then this. I actually looked to see if this game was supported by Nvidia Ansell, but no. I didn't expect it would be, i'm sure these minor things will get better as time goes on. Anyways, you can still see the fantastic layout and different greens and bunkers. Folks will receive a pleasant surprise when they play and see the bloom. Get out there and play folks. Cheers.

The tour version of the course has been published. You can find it under NJ National - TOUR. This version adds 200 yards, firm green's, 187 speeds and a tournament atmosphere with different weather, textures and lighting. This version was how the course was meant to be from scratch.
Here's the flyover...
