Owl’s Nest Golf Club was ranked the #6 best Nicklaus-Designed course by value worldwide according to NBC Golf Pass. Owl’s Nest is the only Nicklaus-Designed course in New Hampshire --which builds on a challenging but playable track for players of all levels.

I spent an extraordinary amount of time making every detail of this course as close to the real thing as possible. In fact, because the course is so large (Owl's Nest is a sprawling, unwalkable course) and because I placed so much detail into each hole, I had to break the course into two files: the front nine and the back nine.

In the end, I think you will agree that all the effort was worthwhile!

Enjoy!

Here's a couple videos of the course in action....

please take a look at hole 13 (back#4), the green is drastically unfair.

I don’t putt in my simulator… so I’m probably missing something. What is unfair about the green on hole 13?

We’re talking about this hole, right?

you can putt it to with 6" or less and it will back up off the green. to me that's not fair.

Understood and thanks for the feedback. If I make a version 2, I'll move the default pin placement.

In the meantime, you can try selecting one of the other pin placements when you set up your round (there's three to choose from.)

Hopefully one of the other pin placements is in a more reasonable position.

I agree. Played the course the other day and it is impossible to keep the ball within 6 ft of that hole location. Get it within the 6 feet of the hole and it ends up off the green regardless of the speed you hit. I tried multiple ways and times. Finally just had to concede the hole.

Otherwise, I enjoyed both nines to this course.
