 Tiger Woods Golf Forum - Copyright ? - Page 1
As many of you know the site expierenced a major hardware failure.  All Tiger Woods 2002-2008 Courses (except for 2 TW2003 courses) are available to download. Library files for all games are available. Special thanks to Jimbo63 who has been a tremendous help in filling in the courses that we were missing from the archive.

NOW on a side note.....THIS WASNT CHEAP, which makes me very thankful we ran a donation drive just prior.  However it cost us just over $900 to get all of this back up and running.  If you could please think about donating to help us cover this cost. Click Here to Donate

can anyone advise if there is any copyright on reproducing an existing course for TW Tour? I'm making preparations to reproduce a famous course, attached to a hotel complex, that has not so far been done, but am concerned that the owners may object.

Well, I think if there was a problem, then people wouldn't have been reproducing coures for the last decade, but that is just what I think. I too have wondered about this, but I have not seen anything said one way or the other.

From my recollection there has only been one issue with this. I can't recall exactly what course it was, but I believe it was Smiling Goats/Homeboy who received an email from the course. I have done several real courses and have yet to have a problem.

There is nothing that can be done to a designer who creates a real course, as long as they do not charge for the files. There was that one case that Bobby mentioned, but nothing ever came of it. No worries.
