I have the first nine holes completed. I'm really looking to get some constructive criticism on the golf aspect of the course.
I.E. Greens have too much slope, too fantasy like, landing zones, fairway size/shape, green size/shape, etc

Hey,
I watched your videos. Looks like a pretty solid layout! I noticed that some of your drop offs to the water are fairly steep, and a more gradual transition may give a slightly more natural look. Also, I found some of your fairway bunkers to be a little too flat. Obviously fairway bunkers generally aren't very deep, but I think some of them could use just a bit more depth. Noticed a few spots where blending around your bunkers was a little sloppy. Other than that, looks like you're on your way to making a solid track! Fairways were nice, good landing areas. Really liked hole #4 and #6. Best of the 9 so far, in my opinion!

I will definitely take a look at the depth of some of the bunkers and I'll see where I can get some more gradual terrain done around the rivers. Thanks for the input! |

Just so everyone knows... I could only fit holes 1-6 in the first video so 7-9 are on the second post. So make sure to check them both out!

I will definitely take a look at the depth of some of the bunkers and I'll see where I can get some more gradual terrain done around the rivers. Thanks for the input! For blending, I meant there are a few areas where your bunkers were partially surrounded by light rough and partially surrounded by heavy rough. To make it look a little cleaner, just make sure that the bunker is completely surround by only one or the other. I believe I saw that most of your bunkers were completely surrounded by light rough? If that's what you've chosen, keep consistent with that throughout the course!
For depth and terrain changes, remember that the soft brushes are your best friends!
And great effort for your first try at a non-generated course. My first course looked...well, let's not go there
