We're about 15 holes in, so it feels like time for a WIP thread. joegolferg and I started this collab about three weeks ago with a view to creating an English links in the vein of Lytham, Hoylake et al. Low-lying land, proper pot bunkers (or as good as we can) and pure, strategic golf. We quite like it.

I’ve been following your work on this one adamantly through your twitch channel. It looks great so far and I can’t wait to see the finished product!

Love the look of this one,even more important the designers involved who think more about the golf than other things which are not so important.Really look forward to this one because Southport and Ainsdale one of the best routing courses in the country,no idea how the real designers came up with them genius of there times.It is something i really admire from fictional designers in this game how designers keep coming up with idea's with the real limitations of the designer.

Don't worry, the retaining walls and waterfalls are going in later

ABSOLUTELY Digging that planting look in these pics....
The top pic following the cart path and "stepping down" the plantings following the lay of the land, leading your eye to the greensite... whether intentional or not, MASTERFUL
Gorgeous bud

Cheers Terry. Can't imagine where I might have got that idea from It's not perfect, but I'm getting closer. The gorse is an absolute pain to work as it's so bright - have to clump a bit but not completely and kind of sink into a group of the green bushes without it getting too dense. A few areas of planting need a bit of review, but generally pretty happy with it. Glad you like. I'll try to update with a couple of holes a day ahead of publish on 30th.
