Thanks Ray, I tried putting grass on top and some plants but it wouldn't cover the rocks completely. If it would let me put some rough over the rocks I could make it look nice. I used Anders suggestion just now and this is about the best I can do with the tools we have. You can't see them but there are retaining walls under the rocks all around the bunker. It's probably best I don't go a cave anyway. As quirky as this game is sometimes. Someone would hit a shot in the cave an not be able to get out lol.  Wade, Try using the green bush/hedge in the walls/fences menu - it looks like a well groomed hedge (wall) - that may work for a cover over the rocks (with the hedge protruding a bit) - example of it in use - check out the course currently on TST this week - Royal St George's-Sandwich - the designer used the hedge to create a wall like edge on the deep bunkers. First time I'd seen that technique and thought it was a pretty cool look.. As for porting your published courses to the new game - it 'should' have an option on the designer page like 2019 does - you'll notice on 2019 there is an option to save your TGC2 courses to 2019 - you just click the button and pick the course and it essentially re[pubs on the new game...so, I'd imagine that 2K21 will have a similar feature to port 2019 courses into 2K21.. Thanks Jeff! I haven't seen that technique. I will take a look at it! |

zzfr33b1rdzz Jeff, that was a great idea with the hedges. I was able to cover the rocks with the hedges, which allowed me to put the bushes on top to cover up the hedges/rocks. I tried putting grass on it but it was too sparse to cover it. It slightly resembles a cave bunker now lol. Not sure what else I could do with this one. Also I just published El Cam if anyone wants to take it for a spin. I still have a lot of planting to do and other touchups. I will probably remove the cart paths and just go with walking paths. It just looks cleaner and it's a PGA course so they can't use carts anyway lol.

Looks great Wade  Though I think it is rough around the bunker? So I think a rough ring to match would be even better. So nice to see different ideas and techniques to see such great results I spot Delta theme? Or is it tropical? |

I tried putting rough ring around the bunker but it won't let me. I guess because it's in the fairway. I tried a bunker brush, with rough and heavy rough and it didn't work. It has a spline bunker in now and couldn't add rough or HR either. |

It has a spline bunker in now and couldn't add rough or HR either. The way I do it - is to use spline on all shapes. So if I want an island rough inside the fairway, I need to put spline from the fairway edge and into the rough island I want, and then make the rough inside with the fairway splines, and just spline close on the way back. Not sure if that was a good explenation? |

A picture from Pebble to show what I tried to describe (I also do the same for those rough islands inside the bunker):  |

Not sure if that was a good explenation? That is awesome. I will try it out. I tried everything lol. I even deleted the fairway and put my rough ring in then re-laid the fairway and the rough disappeared. |

andersnm, I tried it with the existing fairway and no luck. Do I need to redo the fairway and try it then? Thanks

Thanks Click on the fairway spline point and select “fill” this will unfill the fairway and then draw a fairway spline around the bunker and then use a fairway paint brush to fill in rest of fairway |

Wade, obviously plants will be different depending on theme, but I was thinking something like this...  |

I love the rough around the bunker but I am having a tough time achieving that. I tried the tips from Paddy and Anders and I can't get it to work. I lost patience with it lol. |

zzfr33b1rdzz, Jeff, I deleted my bunker and started from scratch this morning. I tried to put the rough around the brush bunker but it was too small. I have walking paths on the course so if I change the width it screws up my walking path size. I still couldn't get the rough to work using Paddy's and Anders tips. I tried to make the bunker look like yours because I really liked how it turned out. I have spent more time on this bunker than 9 holes on the course lol. This is my final product, I'm done messing with it and patience is gone lol.
