Loved the video with the dramatic soundtrack! Should guarantee some plays! I'm just sick of waiting for the update so I can actually play some of these great courses that are being produced!

Just played the Topaz version and had an absolute blast:
First impressions always big to me on the first tee, this one really caught my attention. Great opening hole.. I had a 12 MPH tail wind on the first tee and I noticed fast greens and I thought OH LORD, this is gonna get ugly fast... Promptly stuck my approach to about 2 feet and sunk it for a birdy... I had one more Birdy on the front and finished up the front side at Even par... I was Going into the 18th at even par, hit my approach short it ran back way back toward the front of the green.
Genius boy flubbed my lag putt which rolled back to me for a total of a ONE FOOT PUTT... LOL I boogied the last to end up +1 overall, but for me, with fast greens and high winds, that is a spectacular score...
This course has great global and local terrain work... Eye candy abounds in droves, and it keeps you interested all 18 holes.. There are uphill,downhill, forced layups, just has it all
Outstanding layout... I mean outstanding.. Very imaginative course design and I thoroughly enjoyed my round here.. I fought and clawed my way around the course, and it had me awaiting each shot with anticipation of what was coming next.. That is a winner to me..
Even on fast these greens are absolutely smooth and not terribly difficult to score on... Usually fast greens I spray the ball all over, this one absolutely accepts your shots, sometimes I was forced to sky one very high with a major lofted club and it would land like a butterfly with sore feet.. Other times I would hit a shot and allow for the bounce and roll and several times it just funneled me right down to the hole... That is major major fun to me, different shots, not just a Driver, short or long iron and putt.. He forces you to look around, choose your best option of attack, then you aren't always hitting a driver off the tee.... That's fun golf to me..
Absolute great course, loved every shot, every angle.... Outstanding work
Give this one a go folks, its definitely worth your time
Thanks for a great one... Ill play here often

Stunning presentation! Awesome video! Very nice looking course in game as well!
Oh, and it plays OK too. Tee shots better than greens.

Hi
Just played your Topaz version and had great fun. Having a couple of +100 puts after almost reaching the pin was fun.I can see you have put a lot of work and detail into your design, and I like that you have taken time to create the soundings so nicely. Great work.

Just wet myself a little after watching the video. Can't get home soon enough to try that course out. Great course, and awesome video too. Well done!

Just shot a -3 on the Topaz set-up. The real thing lives up to the video. I was lucky to have winds around 3 mph the whole time.
It's all great, but I think the biggest thing I noticed was the lines of sight across a majority of the course from every tee shot. And the first tee shot, as your ball flies through the air, you basically get a preview of the entire course.
Awesome. Just awesome.
