I really like Wade Hampton, and I have liked Fazio's designs for years. The pin positions you have chosen are on greens done according to green books, I know, but the positions you have chosen are too severe (even the easy ones) for me to use in a Links tournament. I have 2 screen prints for you to look at.

If you could place 2 pins in each of those areas inside the red markings, I could use hole 1 of your course in a tournament. If I can find no more than 2 areas on each green, would you be willing to move 2 pins to each spot? I also have another idea - I'm sending you a PM. Thanks!

I have uploaded the FINAL version of Wade Hampton for Andy to add to the course list.
This version incorporates the problems discovered by the members, and a few I found while working on it. It also finally removes the floating trees on the 6th, and importantly, I have managed to make the tree line in accordance with the photographs I have been working with.
I would like to thank Pete (pmgolf), for reviewing and modifying the pin locations when necessary.
I hope you enjoy playing the course.

I see you filled the form in Ian but I've had no email from WeTransfer.
Did you follow these instructions?
Just choose the file(s) you wish to upload, enter upload@linkscorner.org as the friends email address, enter your own email address and in the message box put the course name. Now click 'Transfer'.

Andy,
My apologies. I always get confused with the transfer. Senility finally settling in.
Thanks

Wade Hampton is one of the best courses anywhere and since it is located in the Carolina's, it also reminds me of Augusta National too. I always love to play this course on Links and Ian did a great job of making some updates!

Guys, sorry for delay in replying.
Pete, I have no reason to doubt you but I am travelling today but I will check it tomorrow. Silly mistake. Thanks for letting me know.``
Jimbo, it was that real estate that made me want to do it.
1PuttJeff, as mentioned above I love the course visually. Thanks for your kind words.
