Maidstone Club - West Course - FINAL

This course was a lot of fun to design. This is my first real course using lidar and I really did try to make this a true to life course with the limited assets that I have, so obviously it will not be 100% accurate. Overall, it is nothing fancy, but plays great and the greens are definitely a challenge.
Notes:
- There are no fly-bys.
- You will notice there is 9 hole course to the right of Hole 1 on the West Course. That is the 9 hole East Course. What I plan on doing is using those 9 holes from the East Course and combining 9 holes from the West Course to create another 18. For the most part, all of the 9 holes are all mapped out already, so why not? I hope to finish it soon.
Hope you enjoy.

Was it intentional that Hole #2 is par 4 from the Member tees when it's par 5 from the other three tees?

Great catch.. I never play from the member's tees so that was an oversight.. I just fixed it, should be par 5 for all tees.
Mark - can you replace the previous version with this one? thanks..

You could just make it a 9-hole golf course. We have several of those already in the PGLS course database.

or perhaps make it 27 holes with the option to choose which 18 or 9 to play.

I agree, that would be the best solution, but I don't think there's a way to do that in Perfect Golf, which is unfortunate because there are other real world examples of golf courses where this would be the ideal arrangement.

There is no way to do that, at least not that I am aware of.. when you plant your pins, you designate which hole it is and there is a drop down to choose from. That drop down only has 18 holes on it. Either way, I decided to create another 18 hole course and came out quite nice. I should be releasing the course fairly soon. I guess could have did 9 holes, but from a personal perspective, I do not play those at all.. so I went with 18.
