Paswego Basin (template course)

[abpg1812]

This is a course I’ve been working on for quite a while called Paswego Basin. It started as a 6 hole design league challenge I never got around to submitting but decided to just take it all the way. Below is a list of hole number and template it is trying to follow. Most holes, I feel follow the template pretty close to the original intention. While holes like 8,13, and 17 may take on a more subjective idea on the design. I still have a long way to go on planting and surfacing and many other aspects but I did want to see if anyone would be willing to play the beta. “Beta Paswego Basin” and give me your thoughts on hole design both good and bad. I haven’t figured out how to put pictures into threads since I design on PS4 and the share to Twitter (X) has been removed. If anyone has some help with that as well. I have shared them to twitter but I can’t get the url to work here in a thread. If you wanna look at a few pictures my twitter (X) is ABPG1812

Published essentially the same concept of 18 templates -- it's called Lion's Mouth Links, if you wanted to take a peak for inspiration. It was a really fun build, hope you enjoy!

I will absolutely check that out, love to see different interpretations of these templates. Thank you for the info! If you happen to play mine and have any comments let me know.

a couple updates. Went heavy on the heavy rough remove tool for a more rugged look. Also went no trees to add more depth and scale to the views. I’ll add some landscape but I do like the changes.

Here are a couple pictures of the par 4 4th hole which is based off the Knoll template and the par 5 18th hole which is based on the coore & crenshaw template.  

par 4 4th “knoll”



par 5 18th “coore and Crenshaw”
