Highlands themed course. Started project to remake Conwy Golf Club in Wales. There are a few differences from the real course though. Mainly fairway and green shapes, a couple bunkers, and elevation. Conwy Golf Club puts a premium on accuracy and control. I hope I've captured that at the very least. Attachments:

As I've just figured out how to post pics, lol.

Faiway firmness about 2 on the dial. Green firmness about 12:30, greenspeeds around 3.Will be making a second version Firm and Fast, as this being a shorter true links course, will be a blast. Will need to do some more testing on pins. To be firm greens may need to b a bit bigger as well. Let's get this done first, lol.

First hole is a 392yd par 4. A relatively straight forward opening hole. OB on the right and bunkers up the left. Without wind (like i the course designer) a 3wd lands safely b4 the first set of bunkers leaving a short iron to the green. A ridge gaurds the approach to the green which slopes from front to back. From the fairway you can see the flag but not the base of the pin. Attachments:

Looking back from the first green. Liked this pic, really shows the ridge guarding the front of the green. Also shows the contouring fairway. Attachments:

The 2nd is a 162 yd par 3. A well protected green demands a accurate tee shot to a 2 tiered green. Any tee shot above the hole will leaves a tricky downhill putt. Pic is of the 2nds tee box's Attachments:

After trying to remake Conwy golf club in Wales, I have nothing but respect for the designer's who do real courses. This was a real struggle for me. All in all though I think it turned out pretty decent. Give it a go. Now accepting tee times. Any feedback is appreciated.
