Just set this tour up with Magnolia National (Thursday to Sunday). No time limit so unlimited plays available. I'll be starting in about 15 mins if anyone wants to play a round or two with me.

Nothing official yet but it will be a tough test of golf. Something that magnolia definitely provides.

I don't see how Magnolia could NOT be the Masters course. Anything else would just be silly.

What fun! Just played the first round and fell for all the little tricks this course has to offer. HOle 9 a triple bogey as I ended up short of the pin and rolled off. Lofted beyond the hole and it rolled back at my feet. Tried pitching with loft from 17 yards, rolled back at my feet. Chipped with a 7 iron got it up with an easy putt. Wow. Tried to go for #15 in two. Made it.. chip rolled past the hole, down into the water Loving this course. I just hope I can make the Masters. I don't care what I shoot here (so long as i make the cut) i want to have fun and the experience to play this in tourney play Well done creator, well done.

Okay not so fun. Took an 11 (+7 ) on round four .. #9 again. It kept rolling back at my feet. I tried flop I tried a harder flop.. rolled down two levels. I tried pitch shot..same I tried hitting to back of the green, putt was so fast it rolled down I tried chipping with a 6iron.. Went no where, but I was 10 yards closer! Only thing that worked was a 60% LW normal shot which hit into the second slope and rolled to the first. Wow... Insane. I think there are going to be a few people not happy with this hole

Here is one way to do it:
But you are right, there will be some complaining going on. It took a lot of work to get it to even hold as many shots as it does now, but from all accounts I am under the impression that it plays that way in real life. What we really need is a bump and run pitch shot where you can bump it into the slope and have it check at the top. As of now, if you miss short and face this situation, your best bet is to play for a shot that stays up on the 2nd tier for a 30 footer for par. Take your bogey, move on, and never come up short on your approach again!

Take your bogey, move on, and never come up short on your approach again! Yeah that was my point. I wasn't really complaining about the hole. I have seen pros even putt from down there which we can't do, but an 8 iron lofted for a bump run would be nice. I did second tier.. was downhill 22 feet for 45 feet. I took off 32 inches and still putt it off the green Course this was fun...
