Hi guys. I have been busy with studies lately, but found some time to create a new course. I would love some critique on it!
Description:
This course is a brand new course located in Senja, Northern Norway. Senja is an island in Troms og Finnmark county. At 1,586.3-square-kilometre it is the second largest island in Norway. It has a wild, mountainous outer (western) side facing the Atlantic, and a mild and lush inner (eastern) side. The course is long from the tips, and is surrounded by water, pot bunkers and wild nature. The place used to be famous for the wooden prisons you can see from some of the holes. Today Senja is a popular tourist destination, and with this brand new course many golfers also takes a trip to this place. The beautiful Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) is common to see in the winter and golfing under the midnight sun in the summer makes this a very cool golf course.

This is a creative masterpiece. I was going to post pics from my round but there is no way that I could ever do this course justice. You gotta play this people, if you don't you lose out on probably the best environment ever created in video golf. Changed my mind, here's three more.

-3 from the tips, pin 1.
Was a little surprised to find myself OB on the 11th despite only just missing the fairway and fringe and being about a foot into the heavy stuff. Bit harsh!!
Nonetheless great creation this. Cheers.

Just had to come and re-post after my round. Yes... yes... yes... Must play for anybody that wants to try something different, without being too extreme to enjoy a round. I loved the bunkers. Hands down my favorite style of bunker work. The rock work is very similar to what I have done on my CC Design Challenge course, so of course, I think it's awesome. Combine the two and what do you get?!?! Rock bunker! Love it! Granted, this course is not for everybody, and is probably not a candidate for hosting a major. However, it is very inspiring and has some really creative use of objects and space that if tweaked a little could add value to any style of course. Great job sir!

Thank you guys! Awesome pics karma4u. I know this is not for everyone lol. I am trying to make it as creative as possible, and it might be a little to much for some... which i fully understand. The OB on this game is not ideal. Hard to line out at the right places because you can`t spline it! Hope they will fix this in the new game. The object meter is full, so I was wondering if anyone experienced any lag?

I didnt mention that because I wasnt sure if that was from my end or not (although I guess it's unlikely that it would be). I appreciate the OB sitch. No worries, shouldnt be missing fairways anyway!

I play with default graphics on PC, and I have never experienced lag on any course. So I can't say yay or nay on lag for consoles. That's kinda hard as a PC designer too, because I do not know when too much is too much.

Went in expecting a Northern Light show, didn't happen. 2 stars.
No, seriously this is an incredibly stunning visual treat. It plays so interesting with the bunker positions and navigating your landing spots, especially with wind.
I went -2 from the tips with pretty good wind. I didn't putt particularly well today. The Par 5 15th whoo boy, that tee shot is scary with 14 mph in your face!
I got a little lag/skipping but nothing that detracted from playing, and I Will definitely play this many more times. Absolutely gorgeous!
