Aldeen IL LDR

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Hope everyone stays safe while being able to enjoy time with their loved ones.

Continuing my Illinois golf course recreations, I went with a municipal course in Rockford called Aldeen Golf Club.

Aldeen Golf Club was ranked the best municipal course in Illinois by Golf Digest in 2009 and was also rated 4-1/2 stars in the 2008 Golf Digest Magazine’s Places to Play guidebook.
GOLF Magazine calls it one of the “Thrifty Fifty” (top 50 courses in the country under $50). Aldeen is ranked #23.
Aldeen was also ranked as one of the Top 50 public golf courses in the United States by GolfAdvisor.

Was able to give a fairly accurate representation of the golf course using flyovers found off youtube similar to how I did cog hill, prairie landing, and naperville country club. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoQdHDlcWgw

Yardages:
Black 7000
Blue 6451
White 5800
Green 5108
Red 2413 --> as usual I set up junior tees for the kids or if you want to work on your approach shots

Hope you enjoy it!

I placed the junior tees off to the rough to make them more discreet. From my playtesting there doesn't seem to be any rough penalty even though I didn't create a tee box. The flag is not 484 from the junior tees. I scouted ahead from the blacks for this screen shot.

I forgot hole 14. I had to add it since I spent way too much time recreating flower beds that you'll likely never see during gameplay unless you hack it so far off target like me

I'm in Lisle so I golf at Arrowhead quite often. One of these days I'll get around to recreating that one.

I play there quite a bit too, would love to see that.
