No screenshots just yet, but I am thinking of going a unique direction with this contest. Here is what I am thinking. Heisenberg really has me inspired after Sattler Heads.
- Large Practice Facility with a short game area. Several putting greens throughout the facility
- 18 Hole Classic design likely to be a Par 70, around 7,000 yards with limited use of trees with some holes hugging the property line, but TBD. This will be the "Members" course and will be easily walkable with holes very close to the Clubhouse. The design will have some template inspiration and offer fairways and greens that are receptive and slower than 187. This course will likely be used for the Contest, but TBD based upon the completion of the Entire Project.
- 18 Hole "TPC" style layout which will implement design principles from PGA Tour Courses specifically. Inspiration will come from courses such as TPC Boston, TPC River Highlands and TPC Twin Cities just to name a few. This layout will likely be a Par 72 and stretch out to 7,700-7,800 and will be a "Resort" Course that will use different parts of the landscape and plot of land to create a different experience from the "Members" course.
- After completion of everything, I would like to create a One or Two "Composite" Courses that could be used to create different levels of competition for TGC Tours. Length, difficulty and routing would be considered and I would like to add tournament objects and crowds.
This will definitely be a process, but without any other competitions coming and my CCC course nearly complete, I am going to passively work on this project for the upcoming months.

Sattler Heads was AMAZING!! Probably some of my favorite courses in the game. Can't wait to see what you create here!

Well...I bailed on my original idea, but in the next few days, Quinebaug CC will be published. This course was loosely inspired by Ekwanok CC in Vermont and will only play 6,500 yards from the tips.
