Carnoustie Cove is now open. Set on the coast of South Carolina, Carnoustie Cove was built to have the Lowcountry vibe. A while back I came up with the idea of making a southern dormant course to fit the mood of these upcoming winter months. I took a lot of inspiration from Hilton Head Island, SC with the courses I have played on my vacations. The course itself have 4 tee locations: Black: 7,161 yards Blue: 6,838 yards White: 6,481 yards Green: 6,018 yards The Black/Blue/White tees could and are recommended to be used in tournament play, which I designed the course with each tee box in mind. All tees bring a challenge to the tee shot, with multiple holes surrounded with OB whether that be the beach or someone's backyard patio. The black tees are the longest, which will require more precise tee shots to avoid fairway bunkers. The blue and white tees (depending on the wind) brings the water more into play, and allows for some short par 4s to be driveable.

Jesus Benny, I think you're the leader for most tour worthy courses released in 2021 and they're all stunners!
What a solid course, Easier than your other ones for sure, but a fun play through and your sculpting is now wonderful. Improving fast on your "new course every month" venture. Definitely on my best of Feb list

Q I'd be disappointed if it wasn't! Great looking course. Will try and play it as soon as I can - working on a Design League Season 2 entry for the first contest but I'm sure I'll find time to play this one soon.

Looks very well done and I agree with Q , the sculpting looks very good. I love the shot of the green with the retaining wall and the bunkers short right, beautiful!

Benny happened to stop by my stream about 10 minutes after he had published this beauty, so I got to play it fresh out of the box :-) It's a great course, Benny!

As you might imagine, I've been looking forward to this as well and will fire it up! Looks great...

It's been a pretty bare month for new releases. Definitely my favourite from February so far. (Assuming the members version of South Yarra doesn't count.)

Loved it as usual. No complaints. You just keep topping yourself bud.

Played this one earlier today and really enjoyed it. The course played great. It was fun and relaxing and your atmosphere was very good!

I managed to get a round in on here yesterday. The default settings are very well considered, as although the course has narrow fairways (a popular design choice of yours with recent publications, and one that I like), the green set-up made everything very playable. Keep up the great work.

Another excellent course. I liked Hush Valley better than this one, but still a fun course to play. Everything seemed like it was well done with this course, nothing to complain about it. Keep up the great work!
