Augusta suggestions from someone who has been way too much.

I live a mile from the course and have been every year since I was 12, so I want to use this thread to offer some ideas for improvements as I think of them. Some of the holes on the GL version seem much easier than they play in real life, and vice versa, so I thought I'd offer some ideas on the actual layout.

Hole 15

Hole 15 plays much too easily compared to RL, imho. The drive is almost completely blind, but you can see the flag on the gl version. I think it may dogleft a bit more to the left as well. Also, just technical notes, its not a Rae's creek running by it, as seems to be depicted, but simply a pond.

In real life, the most common problems are a bad drive into the trees such that the player has to lay up in front of the water. Otherwise, the ball usually hits the green and runs off (its one of the fastest greens) and often times, the water may roll so far as to go in the water which is the 16th hole's fairway. Also, many times a drive is stuck, but its just under hole level on the greenn, and runs back. 80% of the time, this ball will roll into the water in front of the green.

And if you really want to have fun, sometimes turtles like to pop up on the bank of the little pond. I've just been waiting for someone to hit one.

Congratulations on living so close to the real course, I would love to play there someday!

I'll take into consideration your suggestions, but I'm not sure when the course will be changed. While the course was based of Augusta it was never my intention of having a perfect replica, and my course maker and my time might be better spent making a new course and new replicas.
