Well, plant meter is a little under 15% and my Switch is starting to lag already. So, I've decided I'm gonna pull a gamesdecent and not do any more heavy planting on the course - there's some splashes of grass and some clusters of trees, plus a big line of trees and scrub around the edge of the course and... well, that's about it. I know the judges will probably mark it down for the minimal planting, but at least I have an excuse now. The on course stuff is pretty much done - I'll probably do a few things off course and tweak some things on course in the next two weeks and publish reasonably early. No pictures until I've published though

Designing on a Switch? I’m not sure if that’s the biggest accomplishment or the craziest thing I’ve ever heard.

Not gonna lie, scrolling through my feed and I saw this, my instant first thought was, "Why is Paige Spiranac posting about the National Treasure contest?"

Angola- 6 holes completely done and landscaped- 4 holes laid out minus the landscaping- and 8 routed.
I'm sweating finishing this thing now- my busy schedule just got more hectic with my kid rowing in SE Regionals in Knoxville, TN this weekend.... and me officiating HS National Duals (wrestling) in Virginia Beach over Memorial Day weekend. I foresee some all nighters in my near future.
ETA- i probably should've scanned back a page- 2 extra weeks are much appreciated!!!

I shifted direction a bit... the black stones didn't work well as the primary topographical feature, but they look fine in the background. I'm having a ton of fun designing this one, as the immersion factor is so different than anything I've done previously.

It is my duty to inform everyone that, last night, at approximately 8:15pm, my object meter hit 100%.
The course is nearly ready.

Hey, you know how I said I wasn't gonna do anymore planting on my Switch-designed course, and the meter was at 15%? Well, I lied. The meter is now at 70.2%.

... welp. Looks like I’ve got some new inspiration for background planting/points of interest. The Chinese rocket debris hit the Maldives...

ANNOUNCEMENTWe have decided to add two weeks to the publish window deadline for this contest. You may now publish courses at any point between May 15th and June 15th, whether you are in the guaranteed portion, or fighting for the wild card spots. We hope that gives everyone adequate time to produce the course they want to make. This contest is meant to be fun and challenging in a new environment, so we'd rather see everybody have a chance to put their best foot forward. I'll update the OP to reflect these changes. Keep driving! Can we make it 4 weeks?

I'm pretty much set to publish on Saturday! Nearly done, just gotta finish the tee boxes and a handful of final tweaks.
