For me it has to be Dewdrop Ridge Golf Club. I get a massive PGA Tour course feeling from this layout and it's no easy task scoring low here which is what I look for in courses. If anybody knows of any similar courses please let me know, also post your favourite user created courses so far, I may of missed some great tracks.

There are a lot of great tracks, but far and away I enjoy Magnilia National the most. It requires your full attention on every shot. It also plays fair.

I am just blown away by the quality of the user created courses.
Personally having neither the talent nor patience to do anything with GNCD, it astounds me what people create.
Magnolia (all 5 of them) are just outstanding.
Harbor Island Black and Ascension Bay are also two favourites.
And one I could call a 'hidden gem' is Swindon Downs.
I don't know how much play it gets, and no one seems to talk about it, but I think it is the best links course I've seen in the game, because it plays like a real links course. And maybe that's why it seems lower profile... real links golf isn't everyone's cup of tea.
I also really like Redemption / PGA @ Solomon's Mount... I just wish it hadn't been created with the links theme, as really high winds can make that one a tad unfair, or at the very least, a tad frustrating.

I really enjoyed Nisqualli Valley Country Club. I actually reviewed it a couple days ago. Another one of those courses that you have to pay attention to every shot. It's definitely an adventure, but very enjoyable imho. www.tgctours.com/Course/Details/4499 |

I love links. But in my view, Magnolia National is the best, probably cause its so true to the real deal, that I love to watch every year! |

Holly **** What a track!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 lol...I felt the same way. I like to design and have published a few courses but when you see something like this you feel somewhat inadequate as a desinger |

There are 16 and I expected several to be mediocre, but all have their merits. In fact I would bet 8-10 of them make a tour stop this season. They are really that good. One already has been. ( Tour is called the Next Level Tour... I just searched for "Next". Many of the courses listed recently are from this contest, Happy Yeti, Bisons Run, Shakespeare, Majestic Oaks, Blue Willow, Zithobeni, Lions Gate... and many more... |

Just started the tour tonight and got through the first 4 courses. Holed out 40-70yds pitches for eagle to finish the 18th on both Happy Yeti and Majestic Oaks.
And yes, these are all excellent courses. There's only a few I haven't played but I've seen their excellent reviews so I know I'm in for a treat.
Highly recommend the tour.
