Kraken’s Revenge
Welcome to Kraken's Revenge a remodel of my original Kraken course released almost a year ago... As much flack as the original got, I figured it time for it to get its "revenge" on the community, ha ha
Unhappy with the final version of the original I decided to remodel the course, I flipped themes and went with the Delta theme, totally remodeled numerous holes and completely replanted the entire course over the last few weeks....I asked my buddy Eric to help out with the course
VctryLnSprts designed holes 9, 16 and 17 and did the clubhouse area and also sculpted and pinned every green on the new course
There are a lot of completely different hole designs and a several complete redesigned holes and areas... Even stole an idea from @articfury even though mine just arent as good as his
Anyway, This course holds a special place to me, most know the story of the design process and what was going on last year during this month, so I wanted to remodel it , re-release it as a collab and put a better (well I hope better) version out there Three Tees: Blue: 6947 White: 6722 Red: 6413 Green speed 173
Hope you enjoy and any feeback welcome... Thanks Eric for all your help
Terry

The greens just seem a tad flat...
In all seriousness this is an instant classic. Bow down to your masters because it doesn't get any better than this.
I played like crap but chipped my way to -13. Definitely going to get my revenge on the krakens revenge next time I see it, and I know I will

Really liked the theme change and the changes overall to the holes. I assume the Artic Fury idea was the caves which looked great on this course also. Thanks for re-making this, gave it a 5 and favored it.

The greens just seem a tad flat... The greens on this course are relatively small in terms of overall square footage, so when I resculpted them I chose a less severe undulation pattern so that golfers of all abilities would enjoy them. One of the biggest complaints from the original by the vocal minority was the pin positions on the green slopes, so we wanted to eliminate that stigma. The default speed is 174 with moderate firmness, but you should be able to take them to 187 and very firm if you want more challenge. We had CC-level, pure enjoyment in mind with this renovation.

Seems you didn't catch my sarcasm. That comment was more about highlighting the difference between the old greens and the new ones. I wasn't trying to be negative

Just played this and loved it from the first hole! This is a great course, with great hole design, plenty risk reward shots, and just gorgeous to look at. Tour worthy course for sure, for the lower tours. Thanks for a gem...instant favorite and five stars:)

Really beautiful course guys. Loved the layout and views around the course, especially 18. She most certainly plays very friendly... Dwain was -13 and I was -8. I think he might approve of the KRAKEN now

played it tonight. gave it a well deserved 5 stars and a fav. I loved the 14th green, aesthetically amazing, just as the rest of the course is. It plays as well as it looks!

Thought I’d say what a great view you got from the second tee but it was the same all the way round. Stunning
