-At least one template hole of your choice (please specify template used and provide a real world example!) By template, do you mean like "Hey, here's this real world hole that I tried to mimic"? Like if I did an island green similar to sawgrass? I'm going to suggest you skip that one. |

Alternatively, there’s literally a link to videos on all the template holes in the second post 🙂

-At least one template hole of your choice (please specify template used and provide a real world example!) By template, do you mean like "Hey, here's this real world hole that I tried to mimic"? Like if I did an island green similar to sawgrass? I wouldn't say "mimic" but instead "mirror the strategy of the original hole". Im mostly referring to the template style of design done by CB Macdonald, a lot of which are creative reinterpretations of classic links golf holes (an example being the "Eden" template which is based off of hole 11 at the old course at St Andrews) |

Thanks to Q for explaining it. As a new designer, I don't know everything there is to know about designing courses and maybe I'm interpreting this wrong, but this answer kind of feels condescending. |

As a new designer, I don't know everything there is to know about designing courses and maybe I'm interpreting this wrong, but this answer kind of feels condescending. Whilst written in a jokey manner, I think it's pretty sensible advice and I suspect is partly playing off the fact that you missed the information which would explain it in the second post. There's lots to template holes and most beginners get them far more wrong than right. If you're new to design, I strongly suggest you watch these: Hole Design 101: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsuNZuawe0H1kDLE1gX9hvkAy4DtAz1NITemplate Golf Design: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsuNZuawe0H0ZyGA0Sm4Dk1VPAKeTn31O |

Course Elements:-The B101 (Course doesn't exceed changes in elevation greater than 32ft (~10m) tee to green) Any suggestions on the best way to confirm that your course meets the qualifications for this? I think I'm close...just not sure how to go about checking it. |

Use a water plane to find the lowest and highest point on the course. Then measure with the measuring tool. That makes sense. Sure beat's trying to use the measure tool by itself! Considering it's called out as "Course doesn't exceed changes in elevation greater than 32' tee to green", would it make more sense to use the water plane tool on each individual hole? Or is it intended that the whole course (including surroundings) doesn't exceed 32' in elevation difference? |

Yes, it's a bit easier as it's tee to green, but the same trick works, water planes will show you your highest and lowest point on each hole! |
