Was gonna go 5, but I had 6, and then a couple more that popped to mind ... Aw hell, I'll give you the top 10 that come to mind (for now*) ... in no particular order
Turu Wero The Silverback Blue River Dunes (could be substituted w/ several RJWils courses) Heatherton Kings The Kingdom Susquehannock Shelter Island (should have won WC19) Overbrook Valley (should have won WC20) Quincy Downs Ardoliean
* I say for now b/c, without naming names, I feel a couple of this year's CC courses could challenge to get onto this list. Obviously I can't say which ones ... yet.

You can tell them, Jeremy. All those gushing pm's were nice and all, but it's time the rest of the world knew.

Because there's like a billion people in the cc contest, my last post was a joke, everyone.

Question for you guys. Several of you selected Pacific Dunes in your top five; which one of the four Pacific Dunes do you mean? I would just like to compare (for myself, no shameless self-promotion here ) the correct Pacific Dunes to my Bandon Dunes 2019 Lidar.

Lot of new names around though. Didn't want anyone to think design contests are just some c**que thing. Disclaimer added to signature so I can just carry on without worry.

No particular order and couldn't decide between five and six, so you get six. I'll go with 'favourite' as 'best' is difficult to judge: New Highland Dunes (sort of a port so maybe that takes it down to five) Copper Dunes Pastimes Club Overbrook Necedah St Cyrus Bah, the more I think about it, the more it's a crime that I haven't put golfwolfuk 's Frankston Heath on here, but I won't take anything off. One of those courses that I've loved more and more with each play and may well end up as my top course in 2019. Jamie, I know I sent you a ton of feedback at the time - reckon I may re-read that and disagree with myself quite a lot lol

Dunes Lidar data in and was surprised to see there were courses by that name on the game so I went to check them out. They're not what I expected... I'll be trying to do that course and Bandon Trails justice in 2K if the planting doesn't bore me to tears.

And those 2 on the docket, I recruit joegolferg to work his template magic on Old Macdonald.

I would just like to compare (for myself, no shameless self-promotion here ) the correct Pacific Dunes to my Bandon Dunes 2019 Lidar. I played Pacific Dunes 2020 (L). Pacific Dunes (L) is by the same designer, so 2020 is probably the latest. I gave it 4 stars, it's pretty much all there and playable. There were some greens with gouges in it, where some bunkers clearly were not lined up properly, and some of the textures and planting was not top level, but not bad, either. Definitely enough to capture the course, although with some tweaks and extra time spent on planting and details, it could really be a 5 star and one of the best in the game.

Some of the fairways are just outstanding and would make mattyfromcanada blush.
