Started this one over Christmas holidays.... it's coming together rather quickly and I'm really digging the look so far.

Not a native but it is my adopted hometown for the last eight years.

When some of my work began to take me into the area and I began sneaking a peek or two from the road, I told myself that I gotta do this one eventually.

I was supposed to go to the Amatuer a couple years back, but had to go out of town for a family emergency. Family always comes first, but I'm still bummed I missed it.

Looks stellar!!  If you're looking for your next real life rendition then please allow me to offer up Quail Hollow!!  I think you could do it justice for sure!!  Maybe a bit of a challenge with the recent modifications done for the 2017 PGA Championship but I can get you yardage books if it's helpful.

My wife's a native (Conifer). We moved to Lakewood six months after we got married in 2009. I absolutely love the Denver metro area. You get city life, but you are 30 minutes from just escaping the world for the weekend.

I like Quail Hollow... we'll see where I'm at then. I may wait and see if PP has it in store first; they'd do a better job than I would. I've committed to do a bunch of other things first, so I want to make sure I follow through.

The beta is finally ready for this one; I took about three weeks off from designing due to burnout and then had to figure out what to do about the 3D work as that was holding it up. I took a self-taught crash course in DP Roberts house building 101 and managed to scrape out a passing grade, so now we have something.

As soon as I put my daughter to bed I'll be checking it out. Can't wait!

Looks solid. No issues first time playing. Will work it over the next couple of days. Thanks for putting this out.

Played it last night. Incredible rendition. Some of the elevation around the bunkers is a little rough, but I'm sure you'll fix that for the final. Thank you.

What is going on with par on the scorecard?  More than half of the holes' par is not correct.

AI went into water on 17 and continued to play in the water.

The scorecard on the OGT download page is way off. Yardages appear correct, but the tee colors, pars, and indexes are all incorrect. 

 

Also many of the photos are of another golf course. There are no railroad ties anywhere.

The elevation was a nice surprise - the first drive nearly went over the back of the 1st green.

 

Getting a second shot to hold on 17 will be an ongoing challenge.

Yep, it's 5400 feet above sea level so you will absolutely notice it.

Interesting that a lot of feedback that I've been getting so far is that there appears to be more bounce in the fairways and greens. Would that be the altitude as well? I haven't changed anything about the textures other than what they look like.

Haven't had a chance to play yet, but, I gotta say, the "Ghost of Arnold Palmer" splash screen is top notch.
