...sort of. Basically, I'm stepping out of my comfort zone without having trees to frame my holes. I had a day home sick from work today, so that gave me some time to play around with a rugged/coastal highlands look. I've been a bit bored of designing as of late, with this course I am trying some new things, and ditching old methods, especially with planting and bunkers. Not only was I able to rip through about 7 holes in just over 3.5 hours, I'm having a blast doing it. Another day home sick for me tomorrow...who knows, I might have this course done by tomorrow!

sroel908: And as someone who's rangered/scheduled hundreds of courses, trying out a wide range of conditions, I can say with certainty that green speeds do have an impact and definitely matter. Nov 18, 2024 15:57:48 GMT -5 *

sroel908: Green firmness is more about how the ball interacts with the putting surface when you hit an approach into it. A soft green is more receptive, and will allow more backspin than a firm one. A firm green will have less bite and more rollout. Nov 18, 2024 15:57:00 GMT -5

meunier33: I have seen 135 greens that putt like they are 170. Therefore, we can conclude that green speed does not matter. Nov 18, 2024 15:31:35 GMT -5
