Hi All,
I just released a new course "Pebble Creek White/Blue". Pebble Creek is a local course just north of where I live. I haven't played it in about 10 years but liked the layout. It was a 27 hole championship course, but apparently the added 9 was changed into football golf and easier track with two cup sizes per hole. So while I did build the other nine, I had to make some adjustments. What you have is the Original Course layout in the White/Blue. While this is based of a real course, it is NOt a RCR, as I had no recent visits or data to produce a accurate RCR plus I increased the length by about 800 yards to make it more aligned with 2019 distances.
I will be adding the Other 9 hopefully this week or so to have a White/Red and Blue/Red.
As a design note, I did all sculpting and layout for this 18 in TGC2, I am doing the red 9 in 2019. So far, I like TGC2 a lot better when it comes to sculpting. I just don't like a few things in the way the brushes work, its not as smooth. I hate having to click L3 to reset the damn brush! I did all the planting in 2019 as I know from imports that trees are removed or missing when ported over. I do like planting better in 2019, however I wish there was more tree options in country side and good gosh those Willows are AWFUL!
As a side note, this course has lots of evergreens planted through out. Since HB refuses to create those for us I made my own with the bush brush. I think they turned out ok. While the red nine is layed out, and somewhat planted I still have a lot to do with sculpting and planting still. So if you take a peek across the road keep that in mind.
Please let me know what you think.
Thanks!
