Hello!    I've been slowly working on this new course, which is once again one of my favorite courses here in NJ.  The Architects Golf Club in Phillipsburg is one of the best public courses in New Jersey.   With wide open fairways and big greens, it makes for playing this course challenging especially with tougher game settings and weather conditions.   I'm still going through some play testing, but hope to release relatively soon.  

 

Thanks to RBarley and Keith Driver for the tips on EZRoads 3D.  I am not sure why I was hesitant to use EZR, but wound up using the asset for this course and I couldn't be happier with the outcome.

Looks tasty.  Looking forward to hacking it around there.  Has a bit of a Baltusrol feel to it.

I look forward to it Rob, as it will be the first course on JNPG I've actually played in real life. For anyone who hasn't, the name comes from the idea of each hole being an homage to an architect. So instead of being a straight replica course, the holes take the architect's ideas and use the natural lay of the land to create a hole in their style. For example, the holes in the first two pictures are unmistakeable tributes to the 10th at Riviera and 13th at Augusta, but notice how neither actually is laid out the same at the real hole. It is very well done in real life, and I look forward to playing it virtually.

Hey luckymcd, that is great that you played Architects!   I played it a few years ago too... fun track!    You are correct about the layout and the various "architects" who they pay homage to.   Old Tom Morris, Donald Ross, Robert Trent Jones... and so many more!    I still have a few minor adjustments to make and hope to release it soon!
