This is a really good course. I thought the lighting and textures were perfect, captured the lowland Florida feel, templates were well represented. I think my favorite was the tee shot on the Long hole, even though I failed to sling it around the tree sharp enough to hold the fairway. Also, for the nerds:  Thanks for the review, we appreciate it! I’m with you, I really enjoyed the difficulty of that tee shot during playtesting. And the risk/reward of the second shot makes my a$$ pucker, because anything too far left is surely wet. |

How do you get the birds eye view of the full course You can only do it on PC, but it's F10 and then F11 and you can fly around freely far enough to see the entire plot and surroundings. PC showing up the consoles again. On the xbox you can get one if you take a screenshot as you exit the designer, but you literally have half a second to get it! |

For sure, thanks Brian. And great routing E. I moved a couple of holes on the back, but that's pretty much all a Victor Lane routing. |

For inquiring minds ... here's a comparison of the original routing.  |

Just finished playing and enjoyed going in blind without the template list. Looking back now I obviously got confused with the Steamshovel hole and also couldn't work out the Alps. Cracking course packed with the many options and required shots a faithful template course takes. Honestly think the initial Raynor look you were doing would have looked better overall as some of the bunkers you did in that style looked great with the lips. Loved many of the features you added in different ways such as the principals nose bunker and the long sweeping Leven hazard across the fairway.
Lovely way to finish 2019.
Struggled to see how the Alps was an Alps? The green seemed to be visible from all sections of the fairway and the hazard you placed before the green was well in view and short. Unless you had a different interpretation?
Also felt the Leven needed it's front mounding to obscure one side of the green, obviously these are your own spins on the templates but that mounding I'd say is an absolute must feature of that concept.
Upgraded from a 2/10 to a 9/10. 👍

Played this last night, beautiful course! The planting really brought everything together nicely and gave the course a great feel. Bonus points for the pooping goat by the clubhouse.

This thing pissed me off in all the right ways. Those smoooooooooooooooooooooooooooth fairways are deceiving. There’s lots of green to hit to but you can certainly find the wrong areas and build your score like a beer pyramid on St Patty’s Day

 Enjoyed my sleepy-eyed spin round this one this morning. Easily one of the best courses I've played. |

Good work fellas. 16 was a highlight for me and all the par 3s. Environment captured perfectly in a mayday course is no shock either. This could be a fun early port with some of the planting options available in 2k21

That's the great debate, port it our right away or tweak the planting with our new toys. Leaning toward the former just b/c I'll need to get to work DT course at some point. |
