I can't really comment on Prairie and Kingsbarn as I haven't played them. Generally, I don't go too often for links courses. Nine Lakes is awesome!! Beautiful Florida course and very challenging. Real name is Loxahatchie I think, so you can google it. Tons of water. Quarry @ Giant's Ridge is a favorite of one of my friends as he has played there and loves it. He said it is very well done as far as replicating the course. I thoroughly enjoy playing it as well. I think you would get a great representation of courses with Pelican, Merion, Flint Hills, Nine Lakes & Quarry. That would be my choices. Flint has some holes where it plays kind of like a links course, but it is very well done and one of my top 5.

Damn! Looks like Nine Lakes in no longer offered at least not in the 2016 catalogComment
-
See if they still have it because it would be a shame if they don't offer it anymore.Comment
-
do you think it could be called something elseComment
-
It definitely is not on the 2016 course catalog. They can tell you if they still sell it or not.Comment

Guess not. Any other recs. I was told the old courses have been given major undates but I think I would prefer the new courses given they were made for FSX? How is interlocken? I guess I can always buy others tooComment

Interlachen is a very good course. It is one of the originals and probably did receive some updates. Seeing some of the new ones I would say I am very impressed with Hazeltine and Butterfield the most so far. I don't think you could go wrong with Interlachen, Hazeltine, or Butterfield. They are all very good choices. I got to say Hazeltine would be my choice if I had to play one right now though.Comment

So maybe I go with Pellican, Merion, Flint Hills, Prairie Dunes and Hazeltine. Seams like a good mix. I also wondered if that trump course blue monster or the Emirates one would've cool. I guess I can always add them for $150/each. Is that correct?Comment

That's msrp list price and like everything else around here with sim equipment, don't pay the list price..
Reminds me of Martin guitars and minimum advertised prices , (map). Then there's dealers who sell for 40% off list..Last edited by fortysixandtwo; 03-18-2016, 01:37 PM.Comment

So after a week and 40 posts I finalized my courses. Thanks everyone especially Col. I chose Merion, Pellican, Flint Hills, Hazeltine, prairie Dunes and then added Blue Monster snd Emirates for an extra $270. I also get Teton Pines for free with FSX. 8 courses should keep me plenty busy especially since I plan on playing real golf for the next 6 months.Last edited by RCorsa; 03-19-2016, 04:22 AM.Comment

So they offered 5 courses with purchasing fsx base software?Comment
-
Yes I'm also buying a new GC2 and FSX so they threw in 5 additional 5 courses in addition to the free one Teton pines. Im paying for two additional.Comment

You will be happy with those choices. It should give you a good variety of course types. Let me know how prairie dunes is as I haven't played it. It is always in the top 100 courses though!Comment
-
Very good selection and variety of courses. Let me know how you like prairie dunes as I haven't seen it yet, but it is always in the top 100Comment

Was just told Foresight is pulling Pelican, Doral-Blue, Flint Hills off for further testing.Comment
