Looking forward to some fantastic designs, let's show them dream team boys, the rookies can hang with the big Dogs too!
	A designer that designs, or is it a designer that designs when he has the times? no that's not it either, I cant think of anything clever at this moment, will change if I ever feel like it

Usually just add the Course name in the thread here and tag ErixonStone so he knows you've completed.

Just be sure to give the full course name, exactly as it appears in-game. If you have any specific information about the course - specific tees or something - make sure to let us know.

Am I the first to submit? Good luck, everyone; This will be fun.
“Hell Fire & Harmony Falls” is my submission.

Huge Easter Egg on #1 if you’re into coordinates.
#4 & #15 have shortcut landing spots about 90° left of the tee box, indicated by blue golfer signs at the end of the two tee boxes.
If you play without grids/scout cam UI, the green mow lines are exactly 1yd and the fairway mow lines are exactly 5yds.
Poor some out for “Pele” on #9 for protecting the course and the villagers from the lava flows. 😂

Hope you enjoy it, I had a “blast” designing it. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Thank you for hosting this; I can’t wait to play all the new courses.
Again, GOOD LUCK, everyone and happy designing!!

sroel908: And as someone who's rangered/scheduled hundreds of courses, trying out a wide range of conditions, I can say with certainty that green speeds do have an impact and definitely matter. Nov 18, 2024 15:57:48 GMT -5 *

sroel908: Green firmness is more about how the ball interacts with the putting surface when you hit an approach into it. A soft green is more receptive, and will allow more backspin than a firm one. A firm green will have less bite and more rollout. Nov 18, 2024 15:57:00 GMT -5

meunier33: I have seen 135 greens that putt like they are 170. Therefore, we can conclude that green speed does not matter. Nov 18, 2024 15:31:35 GMT -5
