Can You Play Streamsong Black on GSPro? Here's How
Streamsong Black on GSPro — the Tom Doak design routing through Florida sandy ridges and dunes. Here is how the LIDAR build plays in simulation.
Streamsong Black is the Tom Doak design at the Florida resort, routing through the sandy ridges and dunes. Here is how the LIDAR version plays on GSPro.
The Short Answer
Streamsong Black is the Tom Doak design at the Florida resort, routing through the sandy ridges and dunes. Here is how the LIDAR version plays on GSPro.
Tom Doak took the most dramatic piece of land at Streamsong and built Black, the newest of the three courses at the resort. Black winds through the original sand dunes of the phosphate mine, using elevation changes and native sandy waste areas as its primary defense. It is the most links-like of the three courses and the most fun to play.
On GSPro, Streamsong Black is available as a LIDAR community build. It is the most visually distinct of the trilogy because the terrain is the most severe.
Finding Streamsong Black on GSPro
Search for “Streamsong Black” in the GSPro course database. The LIDAR version is available alongside Red and Blue.
The LIDAR Quality
Black runs through the highest and most dramatic terrain on the Streamsong property. The dunes, the ravines, and the elevated green sites are all well-captured by the LIDAR data. The course is open and treeless, so the LIDAR scans are clean and complete.
The green complexes are classic Doak – large, undulating, and built to accept running approaches. The LIDAR captures the false fronts, the internal contours, and the collection areas that define the greens.
How It Plays
Streamsong Black is the most playable of the three courses. The fairways are generous, the greens are large, and the course encourages you to be creative. You can run the ball into most greens, use the slopes to funnel shots toward the pin, and play the kind of ground game that is rare in American golf.
The par-4 9th hole is one of the best on the property. It plays downhill to a valley, then back up to a green set into a dune. The LIDAR captures the dramatic elevation change and the way the hole demands a precise approach.
The par-4 13th hole plays along a ridge with a drop-off left and native dunes right. It is the tightest driving hole on the course and the one that tests your ability to hit a specific shape.
Verdict
Streamsong Black on GSPro is the most fun of the three Streamsong courses. The terrain is dramatic, the shot options are varied, and the Doak design encourages creativity. If you only download one of the three, make it Black. But the real answer is to download all three and spend a weekend playing the best resort golf in Florida without leaving your sim.

Frequently Asked Questions
How realistic is this course on GSPro?
The LIDAR recreation captures real elevation data, green contours, and hole routing. The accuracy depends on the quality of the course’s original LIDAR scan, but GSPro’s community designers consistently produce playable, faithful versions of popular courses.
What launch monitor pairs best with GSPro for this course?
Any GSPro-compatible launch monitor works — Uneekor, SkyTrak, FlightScope Mevo+, and Bushnell Launch Pro are the most common pairings. The launch monitor affects shot capture, not visual quality, so course fidelity is identical regardless of your LM.
