I know it`s early days to talk about course designing, but thought I would start a thread where we can input what course/s we intend to create, just to eliminate the possibility of having more than one designer doing the same course, although there is no problem if someone wants to design a course someone else has already listed, anyway I will update this post as courses get added.

Hehe...

 

Maitland's Meadow  • Fictional  • Scottish Highlands • K11 • (Test course, a bit like Gleneagles, both Queens and King course)

The Black Swan • Fictional • Achill Island, Ireland • K11 • (Where Torrey Pines meets St. Andrews - double greens on a clifftop)

Willow Heath • Fictional • About 15 miles outside of Cheltenham, UK • K11 (An easy, relaxing country golf course)

Cozyville (Working title) • Fictional • Undisclosed Location • K11 (Nothing cozy: Where true champions are forged by hardships and terror)

Mulligan Municipal • Fictional • Northeast of USA • K11 (An interpretative hommage to one of my favs, Oakmont)

aaand...

Pommeroy's P'n'P • Fictional • US Midwest • K11 (A very short Pitch and Putt course, 25 to 85 yds holes, to practice the short game)

...may be expanded latrer with Pommeroys Putt-O-Rama, a miniature golf putting layout, and Pommeroy's Bucket Shack, a driving range - provided it would be possible to switch from one feature to the other without leaving the game.

 

All prepped and ready for the CourseForge.

I don't plan to do any real life courses, I don't see why the Trent-Jones', Nicklaus', Palmers et al should have all the fun. I like the term "Fictional" much better than the description "Fantasy Course" (TWO regaled us with truly monstrous aberrations in that department). Even though my courses are completely fictional or imaginary, I have the ambition to create designs that may not be real, but who very well could be. And not weird plattform jumpers with impossible obstacles and crazy unrealistic landscapes. Fictional yes, but always probable and true to the game.

Man..you guys are going to be some busy bees.  I am going to eventually give my local course..Houston Lake Country Club..a go.  Everything after that is up in the air.  Depends on how CF and I get along, but I am hoping it goes well and I can do a fictional course down the road.
