Had a great time here last night We got disconnected about forty seven times but eventually it ended up the designer csugolfer60 and I playing VctryLnSprts and cephyn in a fun filled back 9 alt shot match.... sharky21 hit it in the head perfectly with his thoughts above Oh Eric sank a putt from about 40 feet to beat Dario and I on 18 to win 1 up He normally couldn't hit a bull in the hind end with a handful of peas, but unfortunately this putt dropped dead center absolutely outstanding track here Dario hole 12 may be my favorite looking par 3 in the game...

Note to self: Don't publish your course 2 hours after Dario
Also, when I saw the name of your course, I knew exactly where it was at. When BB&T bought Susquehanna Bank in 2015, I was part of a team that went up to Lancaster for 2 weeks to assist with the change-over. Some beautiful country up there.

Great course...has a bit of an Oakmont feel to me.

Nice job on this one. Played the major version. 5 stars.
Every drive wasn't "automatic FIR" like 98% of courses. Made you think for once. If you missed spot by 3 yards it could go into deep rough instead of FW. Loved that.
Greens were more than fair. The anthill pin on 8 was brutal. But with 8 iron in it's fine.
Had 2 bogeys and parred the par 5 on front for a -6 from tips on pin 1 with medium winds. Missed a few putts inside 12 feet. But wasn't overly upset with the score.
I like how on many holes '20 feet is good'
Is it tricked up?....sure. However only way to get top players to not shoot -10 while playing their C+ game is to trick it up...
But it's very fair. Well done!

This course, McCory Shores, Blackheart Cove, and Cypress Dunes are all brilliant, in my opinion. And some beauties that weren't even contest entries -- West Coast Norway, etc. The last month or so has been a real treat.

Can’t get enough of this course...it’s everything a Major should be. Tests every aspect of your game and if you have a weakness it will expose it.

Here's the official playthrough. I can see why this course has drawn some strong opinions, both good and bad, from players so far. Takes a different mindset to get around this place. Shot -1 on air and couldn't have been happier (except for 2 easy birdie putts I could have made ... but I digress). Will be very interested to see what the judges make of this course, but I enjoyed the grind on this one. Good luck in the contest, Dario!

This was the most enjoyable one I've seen in a long time, due to your meticulous planning and course management. It was really a treat to see you plan your way around this place so well, and to get your thoughts on the course.

Finally got around to playing this one. The sculpting and surfacing are perfect and the details take this course to an elite level. All around awesome job! I even managed to go -3 on pin 3, albeit in very tame winds. I’d wish you good luck, but I don’t think you’ll need it. I hope this course sends the PGA boys into fits come Open time.

Bit late to the party, but played this last night in RRCC. Wow. Just jaw dropping wow. The look you've got is perfection, this IS a Major championship course, the flow of it, the stadium sections, the difficulty, it's brilliant. I do agree there are one or two driving areas that are a little overly penal when the holes are so long laying back isn't really an option, I've hit the little sliver and it's bounced off in to the rough. That aside I had no issue with the pins (played pin 2) and thoroughly enjoyed the challenge. Had an awful lot of pars! Which is good Excellent.

The members version has now been published under the name Susquehannock Golf Club. The one with the name Susquehannock GC (Members) has a duplicate color for tees that causes a bug. Please play the one in bold.
The members version plays to a par of 73, with the 9th, 11th and 18th holes playing as par 5s, and the greens being much more forgiving and realistic, being softer and slower with more generous pins.
Happy golfing!

csugolfer60 Might need a few tweaks, but I think it's just about there:
