PGA Tour 2K23 Casual Course Review: The Lido

[@GForce41]

Sorry for the accidental blooper reel that was included at the end! 😂 Thanks to the handy KZbin editor, all is clear!

Doing a Sand Valley trip in 2025, and will be playing the Lido as part of it. Cannot wait.

Oh man that sounds good!

I think Peter made the greens default med/slow was because that was about the speed back then. I play this on fast greens and high wind and it's a fun challenge. Which lost Ross course are you re-creating?

[@GForce41]

The current Newton Commonwealth Golf Course. It's not lost but "semi-lost"...it used to be a Private CC called Commonwealth Country Club. Hit financial difficulties and they sold off land and lost a number holes, had to consolidate the remaining ones. I built it to full scale at its prominence, 1941-1959.

So cool to see this in the game! I’ve followed that story and love all the content about what went into building it! On a side note as an aspiring golf course and landscape architecture student learning how to design in this game I’d love to ask you some questions! I’m currently working on a links style course in PGA 2k23 in the same style of like Tara Iti in New Zealand but I’m struggling to create the same look of the massive dunes and sand features around the fairways and greens any tips!?
