Everything he has published is gold but he is not all over Twitch, Twitter, or the forums. Extremely underrated designer that hopefully gets his due in this contest. Great work Sharky....as expected. Rhino you have been my biggest advocate and I appreciate all the positive press you give me. I’m just glad you enjoyed the course. Your opinion means a lot thanks again rhino. |

This course is DAMN nice! So many risk shots u can make and get rewarded if it works. Otherwise, you got a problem. xD Definitely one of my favorite so far in this contest! There is just 1 course in the tournament that i like a bit more. Play that one with a friend and it was just great! IInsane jobe dude, insane job! Thanks sirleossi for the kind words. Glad to see it being one of your favorite in the contest. I haven’t played any yet just took a quick peek at some of the courses and there are some outstanding courses. I’m hoping to play them all in the next week or so including yours. Thanks again and good luck in contest. |

Designed on PS4? That must merit a 'patience' bonus point right there ha!
Was interested to see you say you play left handed. As do I. As it happened, I found myself wondering on a number of the tee shots how they might play differently for right handers. Which I just think goes to demonstrate what an excellent job you did creating challenge, variety and interest off the tee here and to me it all felt nice and natural too. Us poor lefties though. Tough to get second hand clubs and tough in the designer to always bare in mind that most players are of course righties!
My opening 3 tee shots here went, cart part, cart path, retaining wall haha. Course certainly opens up with a bang, on 3 holes that I was thinking could easily have been the closing stretch of holes.
All in all, very much enjoyed the round. Excellent job.

Oh god - didn't realise you were a PS4 designer. Makes that retaining wall even better. How many hours were spent building this course roughly, and how many of those were spent on that retaining wall?  |

With the risk of repeating some of the comments already made... this course is phenomenal! Hundreds of courses played and this is easily in the top 5 for me. Probably the most 'real' course Ive played on here.
Really, really great work.

Yeah being a lefty has its challenges and it’s not just used clubs, a lot of new clubs are always a pain to get in the right shaft and stiffness if they even make them at all. But as for course design this new game 2k21 definitely made the fast downswing to popular of a miss hit. I didn’t really notice the difference in the past games as much as this one. The challenge I wanted in this course can be seen playing as a lefty. The plan was to have players play a lot of fade or power cuts to get on proper side of fairway. So at least I got it right for us left handed players. I enjoy working the ball in this game cause I can’t do it in real life. But I’m glad you enjoyed the course and appreciate the post. |

How many hours were spent building this course roughly, and how many of those were spent on that retaining wall? Yeah that wall took more time then I would like to admit. I wanted to do a course with lot of retaining ever since I saw the promo video for 2k21. I thought they were gonna include ways to change the height of the walls with different land elevations. But when I turned the game on for first time and didn’t see that included and then I saw how long it takes just to switch between different trees I shut the game off for a couple of months. Then I saw the info about this contest and at first I said no to entering but I got hurt at work and needed surgery that was gonna keep me out of work for awhile, I figured this was the best time to try and pull it off. Doesn’t hurt either that a live in the northeast either cause I didn’t have much to do being at home in the winter. I don’t know the exact time it took but I do know that after the contest opened I spent the first month and half just messing with the wall. By the end when I went to bring up the land in all the playable areas to the top of the wood I was ready to break the ps4. Never again at least not on ps4. |

I’m not much of a fantasy course designer not cause I don’t like them but cause I don’t have these guys imagination. I try to design courses like the ones I have played in real life or on tv. So thanks again really appreciate it. |

sharky21 Bump  I still think this one ranks very highly in my current list of World Cup entries - nailed that clean look you were going for. Good luck man! Also, what happened to the course pictures? I can't see them for some reason. Finally, I don't know if you did get the chance to port Prestige Pines but if you do get a chance that would be much appreciated! No pressure
