Great job fellows, beautiful well manicured fun course to hack around on, sorry for all the divots.

HB need to sort this out of bounds brush out, or am I still in bounds on the grass. Great course though, how did you create the boardwalk may I ask.

This is probably the most "perfectly" community-designed course I have played. The only error noticed was on hole 17. There were some random weeds/grass encroaching upon a bunker and light rough. It appeared to be one of those wonky editor things when even though you set the plant meter to 0, it will still occasionally generate plants at random times in random places.
Other than that, some yard markers COULD have been placed.
Five stars and a heart.

If I'm being perfectly honest (not upset at all), the truth is, we got absolutely lambasted for the OB brushes on Evangelist Golf Club, so this time we made absolutely sure the red brush was ALWAYS behind the markers. In order to be 100% certain, there might be times where you are actually behind the markers (or the hedge in this case), and still be in bounds. Is that good? No. Is that better than being in bounds and being called out of bounds? Yes. I'm not really sure what else to do other than never to put OB on a course again because we are kinda damned if we do and damned if we don't. Again, not mad at you at all Les, but what would you have us do differently here?

Played it a little while ago. Absolutely an awesome course. Great strategy and excellent visuals. Great job again!

Maybe you could splash out of there and gain a stroke (or hit the hedge, go further OB and really get yourself in a pickle) but the most prudent option would be to take an unplayable. From that angle, there’d be no drop, so you’d half to go back and re-tee anyway, just as if the game registered the shot as OB. At the end of the day, Les is right though, HB needs to give us something other than ham-handed brushes to define course boundaries. Eric’s as meticulous as they come when putting in OB, and even that can’t prevent fluke situations like this Seems like splineing OB would be a pretty logical fix.

Nothing it’s happened on courses I have made so I know how difficult it is to put down accurately my post was just to make you aware of it. Course I’m doing now has one tiny point that sticks into the course, I’m just going to leave it, not that any of my courses will make it onto the tours.

I played along the hedge with a 7 iron with draw to bring it back on the course, I didn’t see it as a problem because it was far enough away from the hedge to let me do that. My post was to highlight the fact HB needs to do something about the laying down of out of bounds. You pick a perfectly square brush and it bleeds out from the edge, that a similar situation to putting crowds in place.

Really nice course and design. Loved the subtleties of the slopes around the greens and on the greens. Course just played true. The atmosphere was also just perfectly done. Great job gentlemen

I loved the whole Miami beach feel. Very unique and fun course. The environment really added to the experience and the course plays great, too. Easy 5* and favorite. Great job, Eric and Jeremy.

What did you use to create the boardwalks they have very square edges, buildings?
