  Just thought I would put this out there incase some haven't heard.  

   

  Not a bad course to play when it is free.  But don't like it enough to pay to play with all the great wgt courses we already have.

  Thanks for the tip, mate. Wanted to snag me one of them there a-wards at El Grande Rabo del Sol.

  Yep, thanks for the tip also. Couldnt help noticing the meter was smooth as ice though. I wonder why, lol.

  I agree, the course is interesting from a play point of view but the poor graphics are annoying.

  The greens seem strangely inconsistent. On some greens, it seemed as if I was playing on 'fast' instead of 'very fast' and on others the ball would suddenly go jetting away as if I'd stumbled into one of those PGA tournaments.

  Interesting you said that...for me, it was the worst meter hesitation I've ever experience here.

  EDIT: Not blaming...just saying

  It was nice from you to post this. I was not aware and thanks to you I could play Cabo for the first time.

  Not a bad course. The graphics are really ugly of course but the course in itself is nice. There is some problems with some greens (same at Kiawah). Indeed, the grid resolution (distance between the grid lines) is not high enough to capture well the topography of the green which make some putts hazardous (like hole#7 if I remember well). But it's OK. However I wouldn't pay to play it :) .

  The sad part is, i think if this was a WGT course, then it would be one of the most played courses at this time. It is a great course to play on, with slight dog-legs on the point of your drive limit, which make it a little bit harder to play. But as has been said, the poor graphics compared to WGT graphics let it down. Pity.

  Unfortunately the link I posted, when I click on it, only shows that I have already played, so I was hoping it would be the correct link for those who did not play yet.
