Happy new year to you too!

Thanks for this comprehensive list and I thought I had played all your courses.

Now I can play several more.

I am not sure whether The Dunes is in 2k21, as I could not find your name and there is so many renditions.

I look forward to future course from you.

Cheers
Brian

I saw the list of courses, and I'm about to post my own version of The Grizzly.  
I've played there 100's of times from the old layout to the new.
I'll post as an accurate replica course, non-Lidar and see if you like it.

I was involved with the Kroger Senior Classic back in the day and have caddied there.

Thought I would shout out as I also like your courses.



oh btw, are you still in Mason.  I used to know of the Pugh's in Mason, and one in particular.
He was a high school BBall player that also went to Univ Dayton.

Thanks for the info and your help, in finding the course.

I thought I looked for Bomber, but certainly missed this one.

Another good course to play.

Cheers

Hey there, I actually live in South Lebanon and the Grizzly is my usual go to for a round of golf, second is Shaker Run. I actually originally built The Grizzly on TGC1 so that I could play it on my Oculus Rift. This was before the Lidar days, so it was built by hand. 

I am also originally from Utah and am not related to the Pugh's in Mason. But have heard of them before.

Thanks for the reply. Really enjoy your courses.

Tee one up at "St Ives Golf Club" located in Stanwood, MI. A beautiful course with a fun and interesting layout!

"Discover a course that has been crafted from the dramatic glacier-carved landscape of Michigan. Flawlessly combining mystic woodlands, sprawling wetlands, and rugged highlands, spectacular distractions are just par for the course at St. Ives.

Designed by the legendary Michigan golf course architect Jerry Matthews, many consider St. Ives to be his best work. Since opening in 1995, St. Ives has received many awards and accolades including being named among the Top 10 courses in America for women by Golf for Women magazine. Golf Digest has also awarded St. Ives with a prestigious 5-star rating.

The most exciting hole of this par-72 course is arguably the par 4, 14th hole. A straight and accurate tee shot is essential to hit the narrow landing pad. Then to get to the green, a lengthy carry over wetlands is the key to even coming close to par.

The dynamic nature of this course ensures you’ll discover something new each and every time you play it."

Any plans on doing its neighbor, Tullymore?

I played it when it was ranked a Top 100 course (not sure if it still is or not). I remember being underwhelmed, although a 6 hour round can do that to you. I vividly remember a lot of the holes, though, so I've always wondered since then if maybe I did actually like it after all.

No plans for Tullymore at the moment. I did think St Ives had a cool layout!

Played this today...it is indeed a fun layout. I have family near there, and now I want to play the course in real life!

Great thread. Will definitely be going through your course catalog over the next several weeks and playing quite a few.

Tee one up at "The Preserve GC" located in Vancleave, MS! This a beautiful course set in wetland area in southern Mississippi. Really enjoyed putting this one together! Enjoy!

"The Preserve Golf Club is eighteen holes of “pure golf.” The course encompasses 245 pristine acres, surrounded by an additional 1800 acres of dedicated nature preserve. Designed by U.S. Open champion and award-winning course designer Jerry Pate, the native surroundings of pitcher plant bogs, cypress swamps, longleaf pine savannas, live oak groves and native grass prairies are ingeniously integrated into the design of the 18-hole, par-71 layout."

Tee one up at "Metuchen Golf Club", located in Metuchen, NJ!

"Metuchen Golf and Country Club was built in 1915.

Photo by Michael Sotille. The club was originally 9 holes, designed by the golf professional and Greens keeper Charles Lang. The full 18 holes were completed in 1931 and have undergone several changes since. Nevertheless, the course proves itself time and time again against top-level competition. At 6,766 yards from the Championship Tees, the course is by no means a monster. However, our small, well-guarded greens, tree-lined narrow fairways and stingy rough provide plenty of challenges for players of all skill levels.

The front nine is long, with two par 4s playing well over 400 yards, and one uphill par 3 that plays much longer than the distance on the card. At almost 3,500 yards, you often hit most of your clubs on the front nine alone.

The back nine winds around the outside edge of our property with out of bounds along the right side of almost every hole. With two par 5s that are reachable by longer hitters, you may post some good scores on this side. You must be accurate or trees, out of bounds and well-placed bunkers will make approaching the undulating, slick greens quite challenging.

Our signature hole, the 14th, has our famous Metuchen tree in the center of the fairway at 160 yards from the green. With a wide landing area, you must decide which side of the tree to play your tee shot. Then you must negotiate a green side pond before attempting to putt on a green that is very difficult to read. It is a hole to remember."

Went to play Metuchen Golf Club tonight, but it didn't come up when I searched for it on PS4...will check again tomorrow to see if it's delayed on the server side of things.

Same issue on PC.
