Alrighty ding-dongs, I think I've updated the thread with everyone's course. Chances are pretty high that I missed at least one person though. If I haven't tagged you in the entrant thread let me know.
Thanks!

Wait! Did I understand that the winner of Design League receives a box of Ding Dongs? #timetostepupmygame

My grandfather used to say there was so many lakes out there you could canoe hop from lake to lake without ever having to walk more than a mile all the way to Hudson Bay
Aiming for a really mild difficulty here, CC level greens which is something I havent attempted before
Hole 1: reachable par 5, depending on wind you can really cut the corner here Hole 2: long par 4, two fairways and once again vastly different landing zone depending on wind Hole 3: long par 3, aiming just over that front bunker will lead to some fun rolls onto the green Hole 4: driveable par 4, partial driver shot, being on the wrong side of the hole makes this more difficult to birdie Hole 5: short par 3, very different depending on pin Hole 6: 3 shot par 5, huge bailouts if you want it, once again wind can make this hole play really different

38 entries - wow, didn't expect that! Great job fellas, looking forward to playing a few of yours.
Blacktail Creek (DT 2024) - Team Matty (runners-up) The Hairy Lemon (collab with whodatmatt34) Old Kennebunk River (WCoD 2023) Jacquard Causeway (CC 2023) Elstead Heath GC Pequawket Basin GC (NT 2022, not good)
Here's the final timelapse video (well really it's about 3 episodes worth shoved into one). It's been fun recording these timelapses as it doesnt really hinder my designing other than making me realize when Im making myself look stupid and deleting stuff!
Final Summary: 29 hours, 32 minutes of work. 4-5ish hours not filmed: endless playtestings/ PC crashes where I lost the footage.
who knows if I'll even have time for 2.3
going to keep timelapsing for this course until it's a full 18-holer!
Been watching some playthroughs on Twitch and seeing lots of good stuff! Courses look great!
Other then Ameobi’s? Who else is playing these? Lol

On Twitch? Odd... I'm not seeing anything but design streams
Nevermind. I see them now... Bummed mine was clipped, sounded like he had a lot to say 🤣
Maybe @mvpmanatee will send me a recap lol
I watched him play mine. He liked my planting, the golf it didn't seem as though he enjoyed all that much. He mentioned bunkers, which are really hard for me-I just can't seem to get the hang of making decent bunkers. Though, what I don't know exactly is did he mean the shape, sculpting, or placement of said bunkers. Perhaps all 3 lol
HoneyBadgerHacker: Are there any rules to this shout box? Would be nice if it were just to announce published courses that would be fun to play or ideas or help to players or designers instead of constant complaints usually by the same person.

meunier33: I gave up on taking full swings after 3 weeks because I did not get the results you do.
Dec 4, 2024 16:58:57 GMT -5
meunier33: I expect that the less I touch the control, the better my swing will be.
Dec 4, 2024 16:13:59 GMT -5
meunier33: I don't control how hard or soft I push down on the swing stick. I don't even know if this matters

sroel908: I hope you find what you're looking for, and get something out of 2K23 or the older games that can give you the experience you want.

meunier33: I really need to start from zero somehow and get rid of all the weird play habits I have.
Dec 4, 2024 15:54:29 GMT -5
sroel908: I'm sorry, I try to be as understanding as possible...but this never-ending cycle is really tiresome.

sroel908: Again, no idea what can be said anymore, or what you're looking for when posting here. Every post turns into talking in circles. If it's not the game mechanics, it's the controller, or connection, unless it's an injury, or the course or the rangers...

meunier33: That is what people don't get, I can't understand advice. I can only understand someone showing me what they are doing in playing a round with me.
Dec 4, 2024 15:43:21 GMT -5
sroel908: Then I guess you might need to find a new game to play, or should go back to playing 2K21 or something. I don't know what else to say that hasn't already been offered as advice to you here dozens of times.

meunier33: sroel908: I can play the game as it was designed and I will not improve at all, your controller and connection controls how good you are at the game.

ghostgoblin22: oldmangaming606:spare me the hard work take, im in the oilfield, i work 14-16 hours a day and come home and try and play a fair course and you guys put this crap on the schedule, and yes i haven't been playing, just like half of the members of tgc

bubbadave: Uggh. Boards are starting to get spammed.

sroel908: meunier33: You've admitted you don't play 2K23 as its designed, so it shouldn't be a surprise that you're struggling with parts of it.

meunier33: The biggest stat that stands out to me in this game is that my GIR% is only 61, and has been for all of 2K23. I'm not sure how to improve this.

OldManGaming606: ghostgoblin22 Dude, How unappreciative do you have to be to not acknowledge the time and effort the people associated with TGCTours invest for us to enjoy the game. Nobody is forcing you to play. But the verbal abuse is unacceptable.
Dec 3, 2024 15:52:54 GMT -5
meunier33: Im seeing a lot of new courses recently that have greens that will roll your ball off the green even if you are very close to the hole
Dec 3, 2024 13:33:41 GMT -5
OldManGaming606: Some of us struggling putting on greens regardless of how slow or fast the greens are.
