| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses golf course and golf architecture critiques. Suggests that "[the golf architect] looks to nature for his inspiration and tries to fit his golf to his surroundings and not to destroy his surroundings for his golf." Addresses ball lie, suggesting that "no great golf architect and no great player wishes for uniform billiard-table lies." Concludes with the advice that "[one must] always aim to make [his or her] holes interesting and [his or her] finishes artistic, getting away from any artificial or pattern design." |
