The Club at Horseshoe Lake

[jarednich]

Hi Guys and Girls,

I just completed my second course.  It's set in the Boreal theme.  Par 71, 7130 yards.  Green speeds are fast but not set at the highest.  Firmness is set all the way up with the run up option available in nearly every hole.  

I've also released TheClub@ Horseshoe Lake-Members.  Its softer, and shorter at 6500 yards and features different pin positions than the main version.

I would love some feedback.  I'm going to submit this for rating very soon.

I created on PS4, so screenshots aren't great, but here they are:

The landing area for #5 tee shot.

The approach on #5



The landing area for #13


The view from behind #15

This could be 9 course but has 2 major flaws, those being the 2 500+ par 4s

I don't expect birdies but I do expect to have a reasonable chance at par

With the green speed and firmness you chose and along with HBs giving us the baseline driving distance of Cory Paven we have no chance for par.

7 as is

Thanks for playing and for the feedback, Thrangar.  I completely understand what you're saying, and I really should have labeled this iteration of the course "Championship" or "Major".  I was going for the most extreme difficulty I could get without tricking up the course.

There is another version, a members version which is shorter and softer at 6500 yards.  As a player, I rarely play the easy ones, I like the hard ones.  I think that has bled into my designs as well.

Thanks again for playing.

He reviewed my course and left video here.





I know that the admins are looking for reviewers. I would snatch this guy up immediately. He is articulate and does a great job. Put him to work!!

Thanks for the kind words I have already been approached by TGCTours. Excited to possibly do some work for them
