Oakmont now available for The Golf Club (+ other updates)

[hikwelity]

I know The Golf Club no longer has a ton of momentum going for it, there are still a number of community-led features that are keeping the game going strong. If you haven't been around for awhile, here are some updates.

• First, Oakmont Country Club, host of this year's US Open, is now available in the game. I spent 11 months working on this, so I can fairly confidently say that it's as accurate, if not more so, than EA's version (minus moving cars, of course). Check out the course here: http://clvgolf.com/oakmont
  
• In other real course news, Oakland Hills South has also been released, and it's fantastic: http://www.hb-studios.com/forum/index.php?topic=15443.0
  
• Oakland Hills is just one of numerous real courses that continue to be released. They are tracked here: http://www.hb-studios.com/forum/index.php?topic=13377.0
  
• And you can play them here: http://tgctours.proboards.com/thread...al-course-tour
  
• You are probably aware of TGC Tours already if you've played the game. In addition to the regular tours, there are a number of community run events, as well, which keep the total number of submitted rounds each month at around 17,000. Here are some of the community events: http://tgctours.proboards.com/board/...ity-run-events
  
• Lastly, if you are worried about sifting through too many courses to play, or if you are a designer and feel like you can't get any attention for your course, I got you covered. The best courses, and best real courses, are in my Top 100 list: http://clvgolf.com/tgc-top-100

• Want your course reviewed? Drop me a line at CLVgolf.com, the HB forums, the TGC Tours boards, or here!

"So what?" you might say, "I don't like how the game plays." Well, I can't really help you there... or maybe I can. Here is how I play the game, and it obviously keeps things enjoyable for me: http://www.hb-studios.com/forum/index.php?topic=15235.0

For anyone over here at OS who still plays, I would love hearing from you!

Thanks for posting. These are great. Still plenty of momentum for The Golf Club. We've just taken a bit of a break to review the game. Look out for some major news around the 14th June

That's a good report and very helpful clv, thanks for posting it. I definitely plan on checking out Oakmont and Oakland Hills in the next day!

Are these courses available to play for PS4 owners? I'm interested in getting the game on PC, as well, but was waiting until I could get it on sale, prefer to not pay a full price twice.

All courses are cross platform. You'll need to the Collector's Edition to access all of the course themes in the game, though. Most of the newer, better courses are in newer themes which require the DLC, so you definitely need to get that.

In other news, versions US Open-B and Medium-B have been released for Oakmont, both using the Friday pin locations from the 2007 US Open. Two more pin sets will be released in the next week or two.

Great job with Oakmont. Really enjoyed the course. Got my butt kicked in the high winds.

just downloaded TGC for $5 off Playstation Plus, and joined TGCTours.com this week with a couple buddies. Having a blast.
