This is looking epic from what I have seen in the screenshots. It's making me want to get into designing properly!

Absolutely loved it.
I think people may "comment" on how narrow the fairways are; they really are very narrow! But I'm ok with it.
Loved the bunkers (I would have completely heavy roughed them, but I can see you wanted to leave some rockiness to them,) LOVED the lighting and textures used.
And very playable. Really enjoyed my round. Well balanced. Not sure there's an easy hole on the whole course! But then, it's not overly punishing either. Every hole is a scoreable, but needs two good shots to do so. Greens are fast, but nothing silly. Chips roll out a bit so you don't get a free par.
Cracking course! 5 star from me.

I’m glad you brought up the fairway width too as well. I measured on google maps the width of U.S. Open Venues fairways and they measured around 21-25 yards. But I think people will enjoy the realistic challenge! Thanks again! |

This course might set the bar for this contest. It's got the toughness of a us open course and the feel. Then you add in great sculpting, coloring, and lighting and it's just picturesque. I thought The layout of the course fits the theme in general really well. And i thought the fairways are easy i hit 11
*checks notes
er scratch that it was 11%.
Five start favorite good luck!
Edit: And those bunkers!!!

Exceeded my expectations. I found your fairways and bunkers very appropriate, which is all I was worried about from your wip. Very nice course indeed 'lad'

For me, out of the 8 courses I have played so far it has the most US Open feel to it. Feels like I'm playing in the tourney with tremendous difficulty, great views, sightlines you name it.
Absolutely loved it!
