Re: Par 6 Holes
Another thing is, the APCD will not let us stretch out the yardages for each of the holes, without us having to jump through all kinds of hoops to cheat the maximum allowable yardage suggested by the APCD. And even then, I doubt anyone could even be able to create a 7 or 8 hundred yardgene_golf wrote: ↑April 23rd, 2021, 4:45 pmI checked APCD and options are 3, 4 and 5 only.Danny D wrote: ↑April 23rd, 2021, 5:13 amI don't think the APCD will allow a par 6.robsonbight1 wrote: ↑April 22nd, 2021, 5:38 pm Has any of our gifted & creative designers, ever thought about a course or two that includes a Par 6 hole?

hole without it messing up the scorecard accuracy. Unless of course they choose the option to allow "non-regulation" holes, which we know has a bug in it that makes some of the cups invisible.
