Wow, I was blown-away by this so-to-be-released course rendition for Links: The Royal Sydney Golf Club!

The attention to detail is outstanding and it will be fantastic to play this course once released :thumbup:

I may be the last to have discovered this, but if you right-click on each of the images and select Open Image in New Tab, you will get the much bigger and better (original) screenshot in a new tab named file.php. As I said, I might be the last one to the party............and someone is probably about to tell me there's an even simpler way! :smile:

Kind and generous feedback about Sydney - thanks alot. Not far away.

Hey Eric. The tall ones are the eucalyptus gums, found at the site. They are great and those gums were very hard to find in other courses anyway. Rather ironic given the gum is a quintessential Australian tree but not prolific at all at Royal Sydney. So could only make limited use of them here. Maybe on the next course................

Lots of maleleucas tho and they are very common at RS. Got to use some nice sets of those. As you know, RS was dead and buried at one stage because I just couldn't find the right Aussie plants. So finding all those trees and bushes (as I was looking for trees for Mauna Kea actually), with your help, was a gamechanger. Thanks!

Havent played a round so I dont yet know what I'll think of the layout but, getting to see an APCD production like this is just simply soul-soothing.

It gets my vote for best planting set for any course that ever existed for Links.

Other: Austin, Sheshan, Kauri Cliffs, Le Golf Nat. Updates: Whirlpool, Royal Lytham, Royal St George's, Chicago, Chambers Bay, Munchen Nord E

I have played one round on my Linux notebook.

The course looks fantastic, great planting, amazing attention to detail.

I also like the hole previews.

The sirens caught me off guard :)

A very worthy addition to the Australian course library.

Thank you very much.

A great course rendition. A special shout out for that club house. Thanks for this.
Could the next one be Kingston Heath?
