That may be the all time best pano. Also the whole course looks great. If it plays half as well as it looks you've created an all time classic.
I hope you play test your course's thoroughly. Its a shame when I play an A list type course only to find a totally unfair pin on a green or tree that was left randomly in a fairway. No longer an A list course if this happens.

I have pretty much finished the front 9. I did my first play test, which I also video recorded. I eliminated all of the shot setup frames, to make this short and sweet. I was in practice mode and pressing F12 for every shot, so that's why you don't see me miss many shots. No power drives either and both of the par 5's are reachable in two. The link to the video is below.

You will notice that Hole 3 has two pins, lol. One is the pin the game sets, the other an object I have created to place on greens that are not in play, but are visible in the game. I will remove the artificial pin from Hole 3. The front nine is 3,572 yards and plays to par 36.

Taking a short break before starting the back 9. If I push too hard, I start to get sloppy. Will take my time.

Finished the back 9 today and, except for hole and course overheads, the 18-hole course is complete. It plays to a par of 71 and, from the back tees, is 7,239 yards long. I have checked it pretty carefully, but I always like to have others play test it and provide feedback. So, if you would be willing to play test Northumbria Golf Club, send me a private message and I will provide a download link.

I will be posting screenshots and a video playthrough of the back 9. A video playthrough of the front 9 has been posted earlier in this thread.
