This looks the business! I still haven't played your Burning Bridges so might play back-to-back tonight and have a bennyk315 2K21 party! Am I allowed to quote myself? Well this was indeed the business. Course played tough! Typically not a fan of too many tournament objects but this course from the first hole screams Major championship. Really liked that. Loved the rich green colour palette. Very lush. The long darker green fescue style of grass complimented fairway and rough and added another dimension in perfectly framing the holes that this featured on. Impressive routing, subtle fairway undulations and change in elevation. Bunkering was prominent without being intrusive. Green contouring consistently challenging across the board. There was one green on a medium length par 4 late on the front nine or early on the back which I thought was a bit too long and felt out of place. Apart from that nothing else to complain about. Well done Ben and thanks for another great addition to the ever growing 2K21 database. Bring on your next project!

Well done Ben and thanks for another great addition to the ever growing 2K21 database. Bring on your next project! Thanks! From the beginning I wanted to create a US Open feel with the grandstands, my second favorite major. I will usually favor darker lush rough with bright white bunkers. Although for my next course I am thinking about doing a dormant southern course. Iām glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the reply š

Hey Ben, if you're on PC you wouldn't be able to post a direct overhead shot of the course in this thread if it's not too much trouble? Would love to see the course routing in more detail. There's a lot going on. Cheers

There's a lot going on. Cheers Hey man, unfortunately I am not on PC so I'm not able to get that direct overhead. But here is something I just put together quickly with a few different pictures cropped together. It shows all of the holes on the tour course, but is a little messy..

Hey Ben, Do you have a non tour version of Hush Valley like your Burning Bridges courses? I plan on publishing a non-tour one yes. Took a little break and started a new course after, but since there interest, look out for it on here to be published in the next few days or so.

Unfortunately I've changed my mind and will not be publishing a (non-tour) version. Since I had the issue with publishing, when you search for hush valley there are already too many versions of it, it may be confusing which one to pick. Also, I am already too involved with my next project. Sorry to disappoint anyone, but look forward to my next course (It wont have grandstands )
