Welcome to Putter Park!

I decided to try something new with the designer and give everyone a little practice with
the flat blade. You need putts to score, so let's practice!

Putter Park is 9 holes of only greens. To play the course the way I designed it, just create
a new golfer with only a putter in the bag. ( You could use your regular golfer but then you
would have to shuffle the clubs around and you would mess up your real golfer's stats, since
anytime you 1-putt it is an ace! )

The course has a sort of desert look except for the "oasis" on #6 and the "palm tree farm" on #9.
I did not try to put in a lot of "trick" putts, just long and sloping ones so you can work
on lagging it close.

The optimum score should be 18 (-9). I had to make them all par 3 since I cannot make a par 2 hole. 
It is neat when your golfer celebrates a "birdie", because you have successfully 2-putted.

A slight bug that can bug you at times:
Since the ball is actually on the tee on the 1st shot, the game wants to hit a chip shot. This
is not a good play with a putter. The thing to do on the 1st putt is to click on "options",
then on "shot type" and quickly change from a chip to a putt. 
You will also need to adjust the distance and aim at times and dragging the green aim arrow
with the mouse is fastest.

The ball is on a "tee" but as I have tested it did not affect anything at all.

The course has all 4 tees on every hole and all 3 pins, so you have a lot of choice.

If you choose to play "all 18" holes you will go around the circuit twice.


FUN THINGS TO DO:

This is a good skins setup. It is also fun for a match play. Use the foggy setting to make it 
extra interesting.


I hope you have fun. Let me know what you think.
