just curious if this maybe a problem with the id number or if it is just me. there are two discontinued versions which i am unable to download (beta and demo) but the one i have will not play in raw tourney this week. no biggie but it is a pretty course when i just played it for fun.

:lol: when i click on the green arrow to go download the course, i'm taken to a site in french that is advertising online casino's, not link's corner. I don't play raw as much as i used to due to fact that many of the courses used are older versions of courses that have been improved on with newer releases.

albatros,
This weeks Raw at Southerness is another example of how the raw tourney uses the oldest version of a course that has been redone multiple times. 2 versions of this course have been released later than the version being used. Raw's course selection is archaic. I like Jim alot but he is doing RAW a great disservice by only offering the original versions.

I concur 100% with your comments, I used to ❤️ Raw, but haven’t bothered playing in the event for around 18 months, in fact I withdrew from the League some 9 months ago, I also didn’t like that the same course was used the following week in the Stableford event also set up by Jim - IMHO it’s just Laziness.

Cheers

i did see the other two versions but was unable to down load either one. they are apparently discontinued. one said demo and the other beta as i recall. oh well .... appreciate the interest and able to play the raw tourney this week. the stableford is fun but i only enter that if i have some time left over.

to fairways and greens!

As you can see the RAW is setup on the 2001 version, when there plainly 2 2003 versions that have been, and are still available. As i stated RAW setups are archaic and evidently you are the lone pro player willing to download old 2k1 versions to play.

Hi guys -
The Sherwood river course had a bad link to the LinksCorner course download. I contacted Mark and he corrected this link and a few others.
So if anybody wants to use the Sherwood River course now, it goes to the correct download at LinksCorner.
