Inspired by the Central Otago area and courses such as Arrowtown and Tarras. Both courses are small country courses where unique golf holes where found rather than created. My main goal was to try and replicate that with this course (hopefully I succeeded). Par 72 Predominant wind direction: NE Requirements: - At least two holes with zero bunkers
- Augusta bunker challenge (no more than 22 bunkers on the course)
- Four green sites each within 200 yards of each other(1, 6, 10, 17).
Because a picture is so much better, I put together a few images so you get the idea of what inspired this one.

This is really really good. The sculpting is really well done and felt very natural. Loved the greens and always felt engaged by them, which is a huge point of this contest in my opinion. Some fun green sites as well; loved 17 as a template of a well-known golf hole, thought it was super creative. Great job with this one and glad you got this one out before the deadline, was an absolute joy to play. Best of luck in the contest!

One of the most comforting rounds of golf I've had in this game. Great job, Giser

Lovely course, and it's a really nice part of the world down there, you've captured the rural South Island chilled out vibe really nicely. I enjoyed this very much.

Enjoyed my round a lot! Think you pulled off exactly what you set out for based off the real life pictures. The minimal bunkers worked perfectly in the rocky environment. My favorite part was the subtle difficulty off the tee, but there always being a recovery shot available. Great course, and good luck in the competition.

Very well done. The greens while not too severe offered up enough break to be just tough enough for me to say nothing of them playing smaller than they appear. Liked this one a lot.

Really enjoyable environment and big NZ vibes. Nothing says kiwi like fush-n-chups and a paddock of sheep.
Cranked up the greens, filled up my chully-bun fulla puss, slipped on my jandals and played well.

Bro. Nailed it. Feel like I'm racing from Tekapo to Cromwell and then down to Te Anau or something and stumbled across a little country course.
