Re: Rolling Contoured Courses of Unpredictability

Another vote for Wyntoon. Crouching Beast is another one by the same designer that's very similar.

Re: Wonderful Golf Courses

A course I never hear mentioned is Mountain Creek by Normand Gravel. It's a great looking course with a challenging and strategic layout. Unfortunately it seems to be the only course available by this designer, at least here on Links Corner. By the looks of this one though I'm sure he must have desi...

Re: Wonderful Golf Courses

I can't say enough about how much I enjoy playing Wyntoon. The strategy involved is second to none. The greens and the way you need to hit the correct portion, the fairways and the way they are positioned and angled and sloped and how they affect the way you play into the greens, all that is an amaz...

Re: USA Ryder Cup team

A complete humiliation handed to the Euros by the US team. I felt that the Euros seemed a little cocky going into this Cup. Maybe they were, maybe not. Before the competition started you kept hearing that "The Euros know how to play like a team and the US doesn't" crap. Well, we all saw ho...

Re: Sherwood Country Club

A very nice rendition of this excellent course. Thank you to all who made it happen. Just played my first round there and made a double eagle on the 4th hole!

Re: Pasatiempo GC Final

Re: Sherwood Country Club beta

I'm very much looking forward to giving this course a try. I've been lucky enough to set foot on the beautiful course at Sherwood a number of times, as I used to live about 10 minutes away. Never played it though, but can't wait to give it a shot in Links.

Re: Pasatiempo GC Beta

(But, then again, perhaps the real course is a bit more bright and green than I imagine.) I've been to Pasatiempo 4 or 5 times and played it a couple of times. I can't speak for what it's like year round (maybe there's a local here who can), but just going from my few visits I'd say it's definitely...
