I really like the look of what you got going. Jim Hall has the design a course itch.

Thanks, Steve. Thought I would try something a little different from my previous courses - more of a parched look than the well-watered greenery I usually use :) And yeah, I've always preferred to design as opposed to playing. I think the only time I actually play is when I'm checking out my designs during their development. I've played around with all of the other available designers - Links, etc. - but keep coming back to PGA 2000 as it is powerful yet easy to use once you learn a few tricks.

Hole 5, Par 3. Much trickier green than it looks in the pic.

Do you dare to cut that corner on your drive?
