There arent many golf courses in Africa. I am seeking to rectify this. Heres a view of my African golf course. Notice the red sand in the bunkers :) |

Some of the best players in the world come from Africa (it depends on what part), Gary Player, Nick Price, Retief Goosen, David Frost, Ernie Els, Rory Sabbatini, Trevor Immelman, and many more. Back in 05, EA did one of their very best stock courses, The Links at Fancourt.
Lost City Golf Course, in South Africa actually has your kind of structures..... |

That would be something to see for sure........Man those cliffs are insane.....I would love to see an ocean with crashing waves and all those effects as in the pic. The trick would be to do so it looks real and not chezzy. I dont have the information to make this course, but maybe something fictional ???...who knows.... |

South Africa doesnt really count imho opinion - sorry to all South African members :) Golf in South Africa is a white mans game, nothing much African about it. I am talking about the rest of Africa here. If I could Id add elephants and lions to the CLS. A giraffe or two maybe :) Unfortnuately thatis beyond me. In the meantime this baby is proving to be an unusually painful delivery :) I had to give up on it twice beacuse the CA crasghed on me. Here are some more views from the course. Ive almost finished the front nine. |

And the last one for now. This hole has a tricky blind approach. |

I guess I like the look of stone around my tees. It makes them easier to see in the CA file also :)) I have no idea when this course will be finished. |
