Royal County Down and Merion East are there. Shot 6 under at Royal County Down. Eagled that drivable par 4 in the back nine. 

Dormie Club is not.

Are the courses the same regardless of platform?  My kids have a PS4 and a Switch.  They don't play sports gamees but I like to occasionally and this would be up my alley.  When I play now, it's FIFA or Super Mega Baseball on the Switch. 🙂

Have you played WGT online golf?   It can be challenging.

Unfortunately, I don’t know. I read that the version on the Switch the graphics isn’t as good and the game can be buggy but I’ve no hands on experience with the version. OTOH, you can play on the go which is a big plus.

No, will have to check that out. I basically got the game to experience all the different courses and as a breather for the very difficult other games I’m playing. It would be interesting to see how difficult a golf game can be though.

Read some reviews, based on them, it looks like custom courses are available across all platforms.

So some courses are labeled LIDAR and I was wondering what that meant. Here's a description. All I knew before reading that is they look better than typical custom courses. The detail.

Have not played a golf video games in many years, you guys are making me think I should.  Problem was the old Links Golf was too much like my real game, if kept saying “Was that a tree?”

Thanks for the listing. Curious, Riviera, why did you create that one? Doesn’t that course already come with the game? Makes me wonder why there are so many duplicate courses available. 

Pine Valley is there. The greens for this course are brutal. I drove the green on a par 4 and proceeded to 5 putt. 
 

Also San Francisco Golf Club. Much easier course.  But great design. 
 

There were several Olympic Clubs but I couldn’t quite tell which was the Lake Course.

I actually had Riviera designed before 2k21.  2019 Did not have it, so I designed it.

Unfortunately, every one and their mother can put the name of the course and publish it.  I tell everyone to look for the publisher as NobleMan or TheLidarKing.  That will only work on PC.

The customer wanted Pine Valley to have lightning fast greens, so I created them that way.  You can always slow them down in the game prior to starting.

I looked up Pinehurst, wanting to find No. 2. Didn’t find No. 2, but I did find one called Pinehurst No. 10. I think it was something like 8,000 yards from the back tees, par 70, with several 500-yard-plus par 4s. That was really tough, because the greens are crowned, just like the ones on No. 2, but I really enjoyed it. I definitely recommend it.

Putting it on the list! 
 

I’m pretty sure I saw Tobacco Road in there speaking of Pinehurst.

Played Cal Club last night. It's Lidar. Shot 3 over, 3 putts killed me. Compared the course to actual photos and wondering why all the buildings are there when IRL it seems like no buildings. I haven't seen either IRL, but I think I would rather play San Francisco Golf Club over Cal Club if given a choice.

Played ANGC twice, shot 81 the first time despite knowing the course from tv. The greens are tough to negotiate. Second time around shot 73.

No way, the Lidar King replied to this thread! Awesome! I love your courses, man! Great job! Big fan of the Golf Club 2 for PC.

Thanks @JetFan1983 !  If you guys want a course built.  Just put the coupon code TheSandTrap in the form that you use to see if the course can be done.  It will bring the cost of the course down to $299 from my normal price of $387.95, if it can be done and you decide to purchase it. 


Please fill out the form out and include the full course name and address. There is no obligation and I will contact you to let you know if the course...

Played Torrey Pines last night. Only expected to play it one time but I was rusty, forgot the controls and was mad I couldn’t break par and wound up playing 4 rounds until I shot 66. And I did it only with one birdie on a par 5, the 18th. 
 

There are like 5 TP Souths to choose from. I picked the one with the most and highest ratings. 
 

In reference to NLU’s comment on that it was like Firestone by the ocean, it does look that way, everything is in front of you, but some of these fairways are pretty canted and you have to aim way off center to hit one. The par 3s are very interesting and I had a hard time with the greens, some were two tiered and some had tricky breaks.

    • Best Seasons of All Time | Data Golf Best round and event-level strokes gained performances since 1983.   Going back to 1983 adjusting for field strength, Woods has the top 6 seasons by strokes gained. from Data Golf Scheffler has the 7th  8th, 12th and 15th. Woods has three other seasons in the top 20.    Also notable is Rory's highest rated season in the 28th best season. 44 year old Jack Nicklaus has the 36th highest strokes gained season.
    • Hi Everyone,  i ordered a new Qi 35 Driver, 10.5*, Regular Flex Diamoana shaft. Received by Fed X on Thursday, June 4th.  Took to Precision Valley and had a "Jumbo Grip" installed.  Friday morning, headed to Claflin, Ks. and played 18 holes. Front 9 wasn't to bad but I had hit my budddy's Qi with better success. Finally got a little more accustomed to the new club. I shot a 50.  Back 9, I started hitting the driver really well with the Driver delievering longer and straight drives down the fairway.  On my last drive, it was about 230 off the tee. I shot a 53.  (We play for .10/hole; $1.; Birdie; $5 or an Eagle. I won $0.60)  I was tired and headed home. (46 miles one way to play this course but the yearly rate is very cheap. They also have grass greens instead of sand.) I pull my Golf cart with a trailer.My nearest course witrh grass greens  is 25 miles away. Saturday,  I had the iPhone in do not disturb. Finally took it off of DND and I had a text from my golfing buddy that he wanted to play Hays late afternoon. So, he came by, picked my up and we headed to Hays. I was tired from playing 18 holes Friday and was hoping I could play 9 holes and call it a day. At Hays, KS.. I started off pretty rough and just could't seem to relax enough to hit well. (I was planning of finishing the front nine and the go home. However, on hole number 8, it's a 322 yard par 4, and I was able to get on in 2 and 2 putt for a par. #9 hole is a 114 yard par 3 and I hit an 8 iron and landed on the west edge of the fringe for pin high. Chipped up and 1 putted for another par. Front nine = 53 Headed to the back 9. Eerything started to click and #10 = 6; #11=5, #12 = 5, #13 = 4, #14 (Par 5) on in 3 and 2 ptted for par [Driver, 3 wood, and 9 iron and 2 putts] , #15 Par 4; I had a 6, #16 Par 4, I had a, #16 I had a 5, #17 Par 5,  I had a 5. (Driver, 3 wood, 3 wood, 8 iron, 1 putt; #18 Par 3, I had a 4.     BACK 9:  I SHOT A 45!   Yes sir, I like this Driver. I would like to go out again tomorrow but will see how I feel. My goal is to shoot my age before I turn 80 year old.  So, backto Right handed clubs. Qi35 TaylorMade Driver, 3 Wood, Callaway Rogue; 5 Wood Callaway Rogue, Majek Hybrids 4-PW, A Wedge, Loft wedge (60*); White Hot Blade Putter.    When I decided to change to the new driver, I went back to playing right handed. My hybrids are failrly new and are easier to hit. I do carry a conventional 7 iron in case I ge into a bad rough.  I will keep you up to date as the summer moves on.   Blessings,  RetiredOldMan  
    • Went up to Erie to clean up some stuff with the distance wedges, short game, and driver.   Distance Wedges Ball forward in stance. Less handle high at set up. Weight more in balls of feet (feels like more in the toes).  Clubhead travels more up than around. Less arm and more pivot turn. Weight/pressure stays on lead foot.  Pivot around left leg. Center of chest goes forward and up. Not back and down. Hands move down not out, so clubhead can move from the inside out (gets neural path). Don’t pull hands down which causes out to in path and hosel out at ball. A bit of wrist flexion. Though better path and pivot will help this.  Short Game Similar to this wedges, ball is forward, except hands are higher at setup. Pivot with torso, keeping weight forward. Gravity brings the club back down to the ball. Body just pivot so the center goes forward and up, not back and down. Be patient on the transition and downswing. Let gravity take over.  Driver Feel like hands are slowing down at A2. Fast early and put on the brakes. Stay wide with right elbow.  Arms travel down chest, wrist flexion. Send the 10-deg text on the driver at the ground at 45 degree angle to target line.  Wrist flexion should feel like it continues through impact with hands and club exiting out right. Don’t drag hands across body and exit left.     
    • I definitely prefer medal play, but then again, as @StuM points out, it's what I grew up with (or, in my case, began playing golf with -- I took up the sport in my early 20s). Interestingly, the unforgiveness level of it is something I really like.  A friend of mine (a much better player than I am) won her club championship a few years ago.  At her club, this is contested as match play, and something she didn't like was that her opponent could get a triple bogey on a hole she birdied and only drop a hole in the match.  On the other hand, that's something I'm sure some people appreciate (especially the opponent who triple bogeyed that hole, I am sure). My club has a handful of tournaments it calls majors, and one is our Match Play tournament, which was my first big win (wow, over a decade ago).  Of course, I won whatever flight I was in, not the top flight.  Organizing and playing a large match play tournament, outside of the professional or top amateur ranks, is difficult.  I think our medal play play-in was one day, 18 holes, but then we had to self-schedule with some reasonable deadlines, measured in weeks for each round.  I think a flight with 16 people advancing to match play took a few months to resolve.  Nice to watch as the summer unfolded I suppose.  By contrast, our club championship is medal play, three rounds on three consecutive days (with a cut after two).  I won this (well, my flight within it) twice, and the second time, I managed to keep to a great gameplan:  out of 53 par attempts, I had putter in hand for 52 of them.  I think I began that tournament with a handicap of ~13 and having two full rounds (and most of a third) where I at least had a putt for par on every hole (excluding the single birdie across the three days).   Some of those par attempts were 40+ feet away, but having a putter in hand could limit the damage. A format that works well with both stableford and medal play is skins, either as the main event or as a side event;  even if you have a terrible first hole, you could potentially pick up skins at the remaining holes.  I was playing a tournament a month or so ago and a friend of mine, after a few holes, was clearly out of contention for the medal play portion, but he was in the skins game.  He very plainly was playing for the skins in a match-play style manner, attempting shots he'd never consider if he were trying to post a low total score for the day (I think he shot 108 or something).
