This is really great! 23 years after its release date, GBC is still getting clever, professional quality courses released. I’ve been playing a lot of pga23 online which I’ve come now to really enjoy but I actually find myself more excited each week playing my GBC rounds. Thanks to you all for keeping this game feeling fresh even after so many years!

Here's what I have for the course screen. Somewhat unconventional but I kinda' like it. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks!Image

I love the style, Steve. But, I suspect however, that Hole 14 is a mirror image of the actual hole, as the big fairway bunker and the small bunker near the green are on the right of the hole, not the left. This will be an issue if this image is used as the hole overhead.

Cheers

Brad, no holes were changed. Strictly for the course overhead. You should know better...............

Hi Steve, don't want to have a great debate over this but below is the actual hole overhead from the game. As you can see the hole bends from left to right, not right to left, as in your image. Don't know how it has happened, but the image in the coure overhead is definitely a mirror image of the actual overhead.

Cheers

Brad

Brad, there's no debate you just don't understand what I've done with the course overhead which doesn't affect either your hole or the actual hole overhead. You have the course so why don't you just check it yourself??

Hi Steve, I have played three rounds and can see that the hole overhead is fine. Still confused as to why it appears to be mirrored in the course overhead, but I will bow to your greater knowledge of creating these things.

This is a really good course and all the holes gel quite well with each other. Sub-par scoring is not easy and John Bernard has created an absolute monster for Hole 12, easily the hardest hole on the course.

Playtesting comments coming your way soon.

Cheers

Brad
