thanks for all the suggestions and tips, if i can muster the time and mental patience to build another it will definately lean more traditional. looking forward to your new designs, and i hope the NEW pga2k5 considers TACONIC blue for one of their offical course offerings. thanks again for using VERA LAKE on course design quick tips14 and your effort and time as well as the nod to Pristine Vistas. Your season 5 guest appearance was extra special, so on behalf of pristine vistas and my self, THANKS again!
You're quite welcome! Good luck w future designs, keep your creativity and originality, don't feel the need to be too bound by traditional constraints.
@@GForce41 yeah I got one that's just about done. I took a little break from it a while ago though, I just felt kind of burnt out by designing. Hopefully sometime this week I can finish it up. I got about 10% plant meter left so I'm going to go around and hand plant a bunch of grass then I'm calling good. This might be the last one for this game depending on if they announce a release date for the new game
Some of the holes were a bit too long. I wouldn't suggest a 300 yard par 3 or a 570 par 4, that's a little too tough. The split green on #3 I thought was odd... Your planting is beautiful though. Try to keep trees out of the way off the tee, show off that great view and nice planting. Was it #2 with the little pond short and left with the big pond long and right? I agree with Gforce, a bunker would've been better instead of the little mud hole. That makes the hole risk/risk with no reward if you use driver off the tee. I'm trying to think of the last courses I've done... It's been a while since I've finished one. "Ro Shogun no Hokori" is a one and "White Iverson Resort GC" I think are the last two I've done. The White Iverson is ok, it never turned out like I pictured in my head. Ro Shogun no Hokori is better. I try to come up with unique concepts in my head when designing but always think, could this work in real life. I can think of my first course's name too, "Whaler's Widows Wail" I think was its name. There are others but I can't remember all the names of them. Some I was happy with and others I couldn't ever get to play right with what I had in my head
@@michelleroberts-z6uI just finished golfing the course. It's tough, I was +8. I set the time of day to morning and weather to clear. Your planting is awesome and your color scheme is beautiful, better than anything I ever planted on my courses.
Thank you for your dedication and videos. I think im finally figuring this out. Just created 'Old Castle Golf Club' if you like to have a look. Would love some feedback and critique

GForce 41 - can you give Orlando Lakes FL a play through.... Released it 6 weeks ago and its limping along with 365 plays ... Thanks
Will give it a look soon!
It's up as part of Quick Tips 17
Course looks insanely nice, just some weird things on it. Always go 4 pins! If you want only 1 tee box that's fine, but always use 4 pins
Thanks Shane! Yes, always 4 pins for sure. Have you been designing lately?

thanks for the kind words shane, would like to know what you considered weird though.
and also a list of your designs
