Yes, great job everyone. It's so nice to have this beautiful course in the catalog/catalogue!

Congrats Pete (and others involved) on completion

I think another beta after your most recent changes would have caught a few minor issues but for the most part I dont think they affect gameplay, so good job on the very playable product

I really like finding courses that are well suited for Windy and this is definitely one of them

I dont know if we have similar taste of course, but the fairways are mostly very wide for example, and I think firm green settings suit this course nicely as well. If playing any tees other than the (furthest) Ladies without windy it's a very easy course.

I have downloaded and enjoyed a few rounds of Old Head. Although it is a great design of a spectacular golf course, I have found some small issues with the course. There is a large slope on the red tee of the 7th hole. The black tee on the 3rd hole is also not flat across the teeing ground. I was pleased to see a greater variety of pin placement on this design.

I enjoyed playing this one, first time I've seen five par-5's and five par-3's, sort of like I was musing about elsewhere last week. Is that an aquafer running along some of the holes, or just a low wall?

There's a wall-protected walkway crossing the island to allow people some protection from golf balls.
