The rock master did it again. The rock work was a lot more subtle this time (which I liked) but still looked great as did the planting as usual. I think the back 9 was stronger than the front (is on my course too imo). My favourite holes were the short 4, 12th, the 14th, the approach on 15 and then the last 3 were just a great strong finish. Especially loved the par 3 (16th I think) which looked pretty epic. Just like Conner Falls, I think this is a perfect CC course. Congrats mate and best of luck in the comp. That's 1 of 32 down, 31 to go

This was just great. Loved it.
12 and 17 butchered my round ha!
Course hosted my first full round on the newly enabled 60fps on Series X. Different animal now. Good times.

Loved this! Such a calm easy feel to the course. Nothing fancy or tricked up, just a solid fun course to play. Environment was great, course was solid and I scored well, so bonus! Good luck in the contest, this should stack up well.

Please Note i don't scroll about the course looking for things i just play what's in front of me
On my Scoring system i gave it 80/100
Design 18-Enjoyment 22-Realism 18-playability 22
Thought this course played brillant maybe a little too many rocks for my overall liking but the thing i really liked how it played more important to me than most things lovely design.

I'd love to see how Conquest GC would fair with your scoring system. Could it pass the 50 mark I wonder!? (I know this is probably reserved for the top quality contest stuff only....just curious is all)

If we didn't have a power failure... and I didn't have a sh%$ ton of planting left to do I'd be playing this bad boy! Looks great bud!

Another fantastic looking course by the GOAT of rock planting himself

Just played. Can I make one criticism? Not enough rocks. Frankly, I expected more rocks. Especially around that 17th green. Definitely needs more rocks. ๐

Just a really nice course. I never noticed any rocks though - where did you hide them One very minor (teensy weensy) criticism (with reviewing head on) - a few of the fairway bunkers could have done with a little more depth and sculpting. Good job

Andy Meade - I appreciate it sir. Thanks for the support! trailducker - Q - I will put on my pseudo-intellectual hat and say something that makes me sound refined enough to understand poetry like "Good show!" or "Here, here." There we go, now that we are peers in your mind... did you say something about rock?!?! meyo - Thank you so much for the video! This was amazing to see the course played in True Sim format. It really opened my eyes to some opportunities for future courses. hallzballz6908 - Thank you man! You have always been a positive force for supporting my designs and offering great feedback. You know me and rocks... it's a problem... and I can quit any time... so... you know where I can get more?!?! For a friend of course. Heisenberg - Thanks for the feedback man! Like I have said before, your recent courses have been absolutely stunning. Keep up the good work homie. robn - Thanks man! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I was worried about XBox One guys with how many rocks I have all around the course, but it's good to hear the X series guys can play it without lag. scootmcgoot - I hope it can get out of the first round, but that's not looking like it's going to happen. Two really solid courses already in my group and Dario hasn't even released his yet. Thanks for the support! yeltzman - Awesome! I'll take a B grade any day of the week! I appreciate the feedback, and glad you enjoyed your round. nitro22 - Hey man, stay safe, and I hope your power situation gets straightened out. Stay safe, good luck in the contest, and let me know what you think of the course whenever you get around to playing it. mvpmanatee - I think there are a few people that would contest that title, but I'll take it while nobody is looking! Thanks for the support man! pozbaird - Thanks for the kind words, as always. rob4590 - I have gotten good at blending inn rocks to where they are almost indistinguishable from their surroundings. I appreciate the constructive feedback, and I totally agree. I struggled with a lot of them, and ended up forcing a few of them. It does detract a little on some holes, but hopefully it doesn't effect play too much. Thanks for the support.

But for real ๐ถ๐ what a great and fun course! I had a blast playing it.
Keep an eye for a course from me in late April/early May for a competition through Facebook. I hope it works that rock hard heart if yours โค๏ธ

Great course @babybull.
It was a solid design and consistent throughout. I did feel that the rock work on the back nine felt more finished than the front. It wasn't that the front was bad, it just felt different but maybe this was intentional. I really enjoyed the finishing stretch up top on the plateau. I shot a pretty decent round (for me) on pretty difficult settings with low wind so there is a lot of flexibility in this course.
Good luck in Group E, looks like you drew some tough competition.

Played this track yesterday and loved it. Your bunker sculpting has gone to a new level of awesome! Course played really well with nice hole strategy that kept me thinking on every shot. Planting and plot sculpting were stellar. Amazing track my friend!
