Royal Troon Old Course

If you really want the Troon experience Set the Wind to Northeastern and you will get the common Wind at Troon (in designer),making the 1st 6-7 holes Birdie chances then you Hang on Coming Hole.

Pins are from the 2016 Open except pin 1 at the postage stamp which is at the back.

Plus if no-aids is your thing can play with the official 2016 Guide here..    http://www.strokesaver.co.uk/royal_troon_open_2016

Greens can be very tough at firm,high speeds at RSG.

I just played both and they are awesome.  Putting is tough but fair and putting is currently my downfall.  Plus  I'm getting on the greens but not close to the hole on both courses.  I think that says more about the courses in a good way than it does about me.
Even being a yank I love links courses.  Thanks for your work on the links.

Thanks Yeltz for bringing your courses over.

No worries DLW Muirfield going to good can use firm setting there,Birkdale being a tgc1 course really starting to look its age...

Hazeltine Looking really good in TGC2,not sure it will port over any good.

[dlw1964]

My 3 favorites are Troon, Turnberry and Murifield.
Would love a good Carnousite.

Yeltz, I love Hazeltine.  I really missed it in TGC 2 although in TGC1 I think CLV did it. Pretty please?

if you look at tgc2 forum (WIP) i am using google earrh ryder cup scan,slowly adding pictures as i go along,now i am starting to sculpt it.

[jeffbdvs]

It's amazing to me how you guys can take a flat piece of 3D land area, wave your magic wand and brushes and splines, and sculpt it into something that looks and behaves exactly like a real-life golf course.


I don't think you can ever get enough credit for what you do.  (The "you" is plural and applies to all designers, but the really good 5* designers like you, yeltzy, are freakishly talented.)

[Valdebrun]

Well said and so true.

[bigned56]

Agree

[FRSTDWN]

Are bringing Prestwick over? You did Prestwick right?

I'm no a huge links fan but loved that course.

[Yeltzman]

Icyken did Prestwick,i think he is working through is courses.
