Thanks guys. This stuff is helping so much. My new course is already a 100% improvement over what I've done up to now. Spent 6 hours today working on just 2 holes and I'm still not completely satisfied with them.
I estimate this course will take me well over 100 hours to complete.
wow 6 hours on two holes you been watching DDawg havent you
anyway should be good, looking forward to it.
Once you have completed it if you get good reviews you should submit it to tgctours and then you could end up seeing it on a tour 
Yeah, I'm going over every inch of every hole and making little tweaks here and there, making sure my fairways actually have rough around them this time and, well, you know...all that good stuff. LOL.
It is a VERY time consuming and, at times, tedious process. Double dog legs are an extra joy. LOL.
I don't expect it to be up to Tours standards. I have seen some of those courses and they're unreal. I don't have that kind of creativity inside of me. Plus, I don't have that kind of in depth knowledge of golf course layout as far as real courses go. There is only so much you can do when you don't really know what a real golf course looks like. I need to take a trip to my local course, if they'll let me, and take a tour around the place.
