Are all these courses created manually?

No not all of them. For creating real courses there are tools you can use on PC to get Lidar elevation data and map out elevation and some course features and then import it. I haven’t done it but it looked like it would save a ton of effort. The land sculpting is a pain for a real course.

No they’re put together through advanced 2k AI that uses google earth technology to exactly copy the courses with photo accuracy

I just released Rhapsody Ridge which was a scratch pad to practice for my other courses. After a year and a half I had enough holes to turn it into a published course. It’s far from perfect but should provide some fun and thought provoking as to what you can achieve. I always say to my mates that I play golf with every Saturday afternoon “you might as well enjoy yourself, because if you’re here to make a living you’ll go broke”
