        "The Links" offered a different challenge to me. I was looking to do
a course that I've played and one that put emphasis on putting more than
driving. Some of the other things I considered was a course my wife could
play (and one she has played in real life) and a course that offered enough
par threes for our semi-annual pin shot competition at work.
        The course itself was formerly known as "Homelinks" and after a major
revision changed it's name to "The Links". Homesites and a retirement community
were located at the site, offering the residents recreational opportunities
right outside their doors. I guess this course would be known as an excecutive
length course, offering only one par five (the first hole). Putting on this
course is a true challenge.
        Thanks once again for having enough interest to download this one.

Other courses I've also been involved with designing:
        The TPC at Southwind (Federal Express Open)
        Firestone C.C. (World Series of Golf-south course)
        The TPC at Avenel (Kemper Open)
        Forest Oaks C.C. (K-Mart Greater Greensboro Open)
        Harbour Town Golf Links (MCI Heritage Classic)
        English Turn (USF & Classic)
        Augusta National Golf Club (The Masters)
        The TPC at St. Helens (fictional)
