2k Augusta Created Courses?

[slthree]

It's that time of year and I've searched "the masters" and "Augusta" but I get zero results.

Are there any created Augusta courses?

They've pretty much scrubbed any courses that use any of the real-life terms related to the event.

My personal favorite that's still in the game can be found if you search "Nolia".

Thank you. I'll take a look asap

Thank you, Sir. Thank you so much! I'm currently playing with my friend, who has actually played Augusta in real life and he says this is extremely accurate.

Double Edit: I'll never play this course again. It's soooooo difficult. Nothing stays on the green. and the entire time that I'm complaining how hard it is, my buddy says it's exactly how it is in real life.

Beach beat me to it. He recommended it to me earlier but I had to wait to get home and turn the game on to see the name of it. It's a good one.

Yeah, he swears by it. We definitely got numerous good laughs and an equal amount of expletives during our "round from hell".

It's his first time on 2K Golf and he can't believe how realistic it is.

I hadn't heard of this version of Augusta, but I'll have to try it out. My favorite version is called "April's Major". It does a great job of creating the tournament atmosphere, while delivering what appears to be a very faithful rendition of the course.

The Society I manage is playing our 72 hole tournament this week at April's Major, but I limited the green speeds to nothing higher than fast and the firmness no more than medium. It gets frustratingly and artificially difficult above those limits. I set Saturday's round for rain, and turned the firmness down to soft and the green speed to medium to go along with the rain.

The "Nolia" one is done by a designer named Craig LeVasseur (theCLV), who I believe used LiDAR for it.

He's also made great versions of Oakmont, Merion, Winged Foot, and many others.

Okay, if Craig is behind it then I know it's a much play. I'm off to check it out now!
