    Are there any good Par 3 courses out there besides World Tour? I have been through probably 30 and the only other one I've been able to find is Par 3 Woodlands. Definitely worth playing if you like Par 3's.

      Just Published my Whistling Straits course on the Protee servers. After 4 months and over 300 hours carving the nearly 1,000 bunkers. The course plays amazing on the simulator, very immersive and surreal. Published 2 versions:

      Whistling Straits Protee Blue Tees ......plays 6627 yards with moderate pins.
      Whistling Straits Protee Black Tees....plays 6979 yards with tough pin positions (same pins I used on the 7600 yard PC /console version)

      Enjoy.

            Just played the black version ( shot 79) which i was happy with first time around. Very Immersive - i guess because of the width of the views on every shot. A bit intimidating off the tee but i thought very fair landing areas. Greens were a perfect speed and i thought the pins were tough but very fair on this black version. I actually putted great today. Absolutely love the par 3 shots over the corners of steep cliffs. So fun to play. Will give the other version a go as well but i was very happy with the yardage on this one. Thanks for creating 2 versions.

            I think you have created a staple course that will always be played.

            Cant give it enough praise - thanks, Craig.

              Any chance of a 5900-6100 yard version of this? Also - how firm/soft are the greens for this one?

              Thanks-

                Thanks guys, happy with the way it turned out. I can publish a white tee version hoboken, though I think I should start getting a cut from your Sr. Customers .

                Greens are a notch past medium, same with fairways. Though apparently this won't matter after the next update....all courses will be the same green speed and firmness.

                  Just Published........... Whistling Straits Protee White Tees . Plays 6143 yards on the card but a lot of elevated tees so it really plays around 6000.

                      I've been looking forward to this one Craig. I cant wait to get home from traveling so that I can give it a run. Thanks for all of your hard work.

                        Thanks so much Craig.

                        Impossible for this course - but are there any layouts that could be made to play from 4300-4600 yards? I've got 3rd, 4th, 5th & 6th graders coming regularly - many take golf lessons and are pretty good, but they play with drives going between 150 and 180, so I'd like to find a course that suit them and not be all par 3 holes.

                          You should make one. It's super easy and quite quick with the random hole layout.

                          You may enjoy it.

                                Hey hobokengolf - I don't have TGC (looking into options for my device) but is there no way to put a boost on for players? On my current system I have a boost on for my 10 and 7 year old sons that basically results in them driving around 300 yards if they hit it well. It lets me play along with them without a boost and it moves along quickly. The boost percentage reduces as the clubs get shorter, and no boost is on once they are using a wedge or putter (so chips and putts are realistic). If TGC/ProTee doesn't have that currently, someone should suggest/request it.
