Course Creation Request

[purkaset]

Hello Everyone,

If anyone would like to create a course and is open for suggestions... Will you please take a look at Shining Rock in Northbridge, MA?

It's a challenging course with a slope of over 140 with narrow fairways.  And one of the holes includes a drive over a 200 yard ravine filled with Rocks and Brush.

If anyone would like to tackle this, I would greatly appreciate it.

Cheers

Interesting course and hole #4 does seem like a fun one. Looks like someone started to do the OSM and then gave up... Anyway, the lidar is a small problem since the front 9 is from 2015 and the back 9 is from 2010. At least the back 9 is from after the course was built, so we do have a complete course, but there could be some mapping alignment issues. I'll see how far I get with this.

update: I have all the alignment issues worked out and will hopefully have this course published by Christmas. 

update 2: This hole #4 is really messing with how the game handles waypoints. Either it is aiming you over to fairway #3 or it is putting you in the ravine with a 3 wood. On top of that, each of the 5 tee placements get handled differently, so what works for the back tee screws up a couple of the other tees and vice versa. Plus it will not really matter since you can easily drive the #4 green with an average tee shot. Overall, the course is... odd. Most of the design character of the course is easily bypassed or ignored completely with how short the game plays, and the drastically sloped greens on many of the holes require the green speed to be set almost as slow as possible making the 'normal' greens play unbelievably tame.  Some courses are fantastic in person (like I'm sure this one is) but fall flat in the game.
