I'm actually a big fan of this software. Generally I like to stick to more traditional looking courses though. There's another user here (Peter?) who has been using this for his re-imagining of Lido.
There's also Perfect Golf, which seems to have a much smaller user base but a more conservative one, in terms of the kinds of virtual courses they build and want to see built. There is one guy there who likes to go the crazy route (i.e. courses on Mars, through the pyramids, in a prison, etc..) but he tends to be the odd one out. In most cases the popular courses are real course recreations, especially now that a lot of them are laid out on top of lidar data.
There's a lot of simulators running both of these, so from a practical standpoint I need to consider those players when I'm creating something. Hitting over horses and kangaroos usually isn't part of that
