4 discontinued Microsoft courses

[Paul44]

I have a question.

How come there 4 discontinued Microsoft courses on the Links Corner course database, does this mean that Microsoft withdrew them or did something else happen?

Dose anyone know what version Links or disc these courses came from?

Links Corner number – Course name.

848 – Three Canyons

313 - Westfield

7 – Pinehurst No 2 (2000)

6 – Pinehurst No 2

All above Microsoft discontinued courses!

Three Canyons you can D/L for free at Links Country Club. It goes back to LS days and was included in the Links LS Classic package. It's a par three desert course.

I'm surprised Barton Creek is no longer available. I used to have it, went to DL after it was discussed here a few days ago, but can't get it now. The review wasn't very positive, but I did like the course layout. Probably I would agree with the reviewer now, we've come to expect far more quality over the years.

(I had a good laugh when I searched online for the course, and saw "Links: Master List of Available Courses" posted by Microsoft. Sure enough, MS was its usual helpful self and gives you just a LIST of the courses. About what you'd expect.)

Still odd that there 4 courses are discontinued Microsoft courses on the Links Corner course database?

FYI - Barton Creek is on my list of courses I'm going to work on recreating. Still months away from getting started on it though. It's one of my favorites, too.
