Important: Remember to set fairways to firm, or even better, very firm, due to the highlands bug.Welcome to Royal St. Gerald's GC! My entry into the 2021/22 Rookie Design Contest. A classic links course nestling its way amongst grassy dunes with wavy uneven fairways. It's easily the most fun I've had creating a course to date and I hope you enjoy playing it as much as I did creating it. The course draws inspirations from a number of real life courses such as Royal St. George's, Silloth on Solway, Royal Portrush and many others. There are a few riffs on real life holes as well, with inspiration coming from places such as Prestwick and of course the Old Course. The name is dedicated to St. Gerald, the patron saint of digital golf course designers everywhere. Special thanks goes to mattyfromcanada for talking me into doing a links course, tpetro b101 and mctrees02 for invaluable feedback and help, and possibly anyone I've forgot to mention. Welcome to Royal St. Gerald's GC!

Gave this a play before I went out of town for New Years and enjoyed my round. There’s some challenge here but ability to score as well. Great job as always Axel!
