Cedar Creek
A Municiple Course
in San Antonio TX
Perhaps one of the finest municiple golf courses in the country.
It was designed by Fingers and Dye, and built in 1988 by the City of San
Antonio. It is in the Texas Hill Country in the Northwest of San
Antonio. Unfortunately it is too difficult for most Sunday duffers, so
current playing time hovers around 5 1/2 - 6 hours.
In my efforts to design this course, I borrowed several objects
from the Compuserv Library and the background from one of the courses
there. Several of the object are of my own efforts, but I don't excell at
the creative/artsy stuff. I played with the palette, trying to achieve a
sun burnt rough effect. I'm happy with the result, I hope you enjoy it
also.
You'll find this course challenging, I hope. You can let it out off
the tee as most fairways roll toward the middle. But the toughness here is
on the greens. They are extremely large (sometimes over 100 ft putts) and
undulating. Both features are relatively realistic compared to the reality
of this course. My practice rounds to "proof" the course led to some
pretty high scores, even for me.
I play this course regularly, and think I have captured it pretty
well. The special characteristics of the course are it's huge rolling
greens and concave fairways. Obviously Fingers and Dye liked grass
bunkers as well as sand.
It has been my desire for some time to do this course, and waited
til I thought I was up to it. Fantasy courses are considerably easier, to
me, than real ones. I think I did a credable job with this one.
I hope you enjoy it.
