Golf Sim Clubhouse Forum

I started a new course about a month ago. There's a funny story behind it, too... I decided to design a course in Alabama, drawing some inspiration from the RTJ Golf Trail. I searched for a bit on Google Earth and found a great, hilly site very near Oxmoor Valley, a RTJ design near Birmingham, AL. I wanted to come up with a name first so my librarie(s) would have the same name and eliminate the need to change the file names later. I settled on Ross Bridge, named after the road the course is accessed from. Here's the funny part, little did I know that there is a new RTJ course located on the exact same site...with the SAME NAME!!! I realized this after looking for pictures of some of the Trail's courses. My version of Google Earth does not show the course being there, just a bunch of trees!

So, my design is purely fictional, and hopefully as good as the real Ross Bridge! I designed this course to be played from 2 different sets of tees, giving you 2 different angles and yardages to most of the holes. The shots below are of #9. Black tees are "tournament tees", yellow tees are "pro tees"...

Holey Moley! Better hit em straight on that course... lol.
Looks great Bro. Can't wait to see the final product.

That's soooo realistic looking. Are those your own textures? They look awesome together.

Me Likeie alot. Love the tight tee shot look.

Cool Man!
I too like the colors of the textures!
From the screen-shots, it seems that you have the right idea about the trees and textures of that geographic area of the country!
Looks great! Makes me consider reinstalling the game and giving it a loop-or-two!
Cheers!

PS- I like what I can see of the Pano too!
