2021 Course Selection Notes

[JMK59]

Sorry - out of all the substitute courses I picked for the Continental Tour, this is my least favorite.

For next year, suggest something that we aren't using that looks like the real course.

For these Middle East courses I've tried to stay with courses from Florida.

Here's our list of courses in use:

Not sure what to make of this course. I mean I hit 13/13 fairways and 18/18 GIR for the first time ever but still only finished 2 under par due to several gimmee putt results one of which stopped 0 inches from the hole !

[JMK59]

I'd really like to replace it with something better for next year (see above).

That's what this thread is for - to collect comments and suggestions to make next year's Tour better.

Only two greens didn't have a straight putt even over very long distances. Lots of stray grass. Giant benches.

Someone needs to file a police report with the Bexar County Sheriff's office. It appears someone stole half the fairways at TPC SA

Have to agree. I assume this is a good representation of the real course, never noticed the narrow fairways in the past from watching the tournament on TV.

[JMK59]

Fairways are very narrow.

Those fairways are about 20% wider than the course I played. I'll try to compare later

[Drgnslyr221]

The rough is pretty gentle so Probably wont affect scores as much as I thought.

[Drgnslyr221]

After some comparisons using the measuring tool in Earth San Antonio is indeed missing about 20-30% of the fairway on most holes. If you look at the overhead of the course on any maps you can see the fairways go up to the bunkers and the trees. The 2020 rendition is really far off in fairway width from the resources I could find. Like the fairways end 5 yards before the fairway bunker.
