Contest #3 - Claustrophobic *MAJOR* - May 10th - June 14th:
Contest Challenge:
Build 9 holes (3,000 Yard Minimum) in a rectangle plot of 450x900 yards total.
Judging:
You will be judged on:
- Aesthetics
- Technical Execution
- Individual Hole Strategy
as well as
- How well you route within a tightly confined perimeter.
We want hole length and strategy variety within this small space. Also, we don’t want to feel so confined by the constraints. The perimeter must be present but not feel like it’s closing you in or very obvious to the golfer; this is the main challenge to you as the designer. Unique and creative hole designs and routing are encouraged but be careful as it’s a fine line between something that's quirky just to be quirky and doesn’t work and something that tweeks the general “rules” for the betterment of the course as a whole. If you are doing something unorthodox make sure there is a purpose to it. We want to encourage realistic routing in these constraints over one that has all sorts of safety or logistical hazards.
Precedents:
Full courses with tighter routings to find inspiration from
Instructions:
You may begin now! When you are completed please comment in this thread and tag myself. Please title the course “DL4.3_[Forum name]” when you publish. Greens must have 4 pins. The judging is for 9 holes and 9 holes only. If you make any more holes you will only be judged on the first 9. This is a Major so the points have a 50% increase.
All courses must be published by June 14th 11 pm PST. I will go by when you post in the forums to check this.
HAVE FUN AND BE CASUAL!
