    Just wanted to drop some humble suggestions to further improve this game:

     

    -New "best of" courses... you've added some courses since you originally put together the best of famous, best of hardest, best of par 3, best of par 4, best of par 5 courses.  I think it would be a good idea to add a second version of each of those.  Keep the current ones, but do second or even third versions of those.  I kind of like the idea of a best of driveable par 4's too.  Pick several par 4's and fix the tees around 300-325 with high risk/reward green areas.  Would be fun.  Yeah people can put up low scores but let's not act like most of these cc's aren't doing st andrews short tees on unlimited to pad their stats already.

    -Kind of along the lines of the first suggestion (and my next suggestion), maybe a "random 9" course which randomly pulls 2 par 5's, 2 par 3's, and rest par 4's.  I wouldn't do that for tourney play, but for just picking up a multiplayer or stroke game with your friends or randoms.  

    -When creating an alt shot or stroke match, can we get the "Any 9" option for the course selection like we do when trying to join an alt shot or stroke match?  Helps for a quick set up for the indecisive people like me. 

    -I've said this before and will say again, I think the fairway bunkers are way off and unrealistic.  Most fairway bunkers you bounce or roll into.  More accurate to have a 20-25% lie or less.  Not 30/40 unless you fly it into there.  Further it's very unrealistic to only be able to advance it 100-120 yds tops.  I'm fine with a mis-hit being very penal and lack of control on spin, etc.... but the distance thing is just wrong.  

    -Editing of friends... I see you've added a plus circle next to the names of people who are not your friend so it's easier to add.  How about an easier way to remove friends other than having to go to their profile page?  If I go to my profile and click on see all friends, it just shows their avatar.  I have to go to their profile page to remove them.  Would be easier to have them listed and click a minus sign to remove them.  

    Thanks for listening.

    Make a "Best of Par 3s & Par 5s"...3s/5s. It would be easy to combine the 2, make a par 70-72 course, and can count towards scoring average. No new pictures needed, just use what is there. Gives an added course with little effort.

    Thanks for listening.

    Hello!

    The ability to vary tee distance has made for much more variety in terms creating

    events, I wish to thank you for that!

    I was wondering if their was a thought of adding more room for creative play by have stroke play rounds AND closest to the hole rounds within a tournament?  Not within a round so much as in a 4 round event for example have a 1st round stroke play, then a 2nd round ctth....different variations. 

    Again not one hole stroke play, then the next ctth, but vary the rounds?

    A member mentioned that to me and I thought hey, any way to have more room to create variety within the club would make the owners job easier and the members would enjoy it...

    Thanks for your time.
