Default Replica Holes and Replica Courses

Two I know of, but I'm sure there are more.... lets make a list and what you thought of them if you have played em.

Northern Bay (Wisconsin near the Wisconsin Dells)

7 replica holes including:
17 Sawgrass
18 Bayhill
16 Augusta National
The par 5 from Amen Corner
the remaining three I cant remember, but I think one was from Oakmont, and another from Firestone CC.

Replicas were good as far as identical design. The slope of the green on 18 Bayhill really is severe. 17 from Sawgrass looked almost like the original island green. obviously, treelines and such are not replicated, but the elevation changes and slopes looked to be pretty good matches.

World Golf Tour(Carolina)

Never played here but would love a review from someone who has.

From what I understand, there 3 seperate 9's
The US Open courses nine
The Foreign courses nine
And a nine that has all of Amen corner, 17 Sawgrass and other famous signature holes.

I have heard there is another somewhere in the Orlando area... anyone know of this one?
