Excellent course but seriously one poor shot you go into the bushes 12 atempts later still cant move the ball out . front 9 was -7 rage quitted after so many attempts to get the ball from the bushes, should be OB and take a drop and a penalty.

Exactly. Designers design courses to beat you. Nothing about having fun. Those guys who will disagree are the top 10% players who never miss a snap. Can you spell c-o-n-t-r-o-l-l-er? Played that course. Hit several perfect snap drives that went down huge slopes to the rough. They penalize you for hitting a good shot. Not golf.

got to agree with the point that some designers, design to defeat.
mostly on the fantasy courses. i try to avoid those courses and the designers who build to defeat
we got a lot of great built courses that are mainly the real courses to keep me busy.

Happened to me too Maxie...halfway through my first round. I must have been on about my 12th attempt out of bushes before i gave up. I will just miss the rest of this tourney out.

Can we at least agree that this is a beautiful course and a really good job by the designer? Cape Kidnappers is a real course and this designer (Dropzone) has shown in the past his attention to detail and realisim. Giving credit where credit is due, this is a fine test (stay on the FW) and I thank the designer for his work.

This course is not good. Looks pretty but not very playable. I could not hit a wedge shot from any spot on the course without getting really bad stutter from swing meter. Other courses played good. I deleted course and reloaded without success. Still had same problem. Never finished this weeks tourney. Too darn hard to play.

I sent a message to Dropzone73 over at PP and he said he would look into issue.

Yes, the course has been updated so when you hit in the unplayable bushes you have to rehit.

The problem with this update, the OOB's includes green side of tree/bush areas on lots of holes...so if you hit close to tree(but not in) you have to rehit.....thats gonna p**s players......either the oob area need extending out (away from green) or revert to old update and just avoid the hazards........Great course btw......buty
