Abstract/Contents: | "Golf courses now dress the great outdoors in straight lines - just about the only thing not found in nature...This latest fashion in golf is contrived, artificial and has little to do with the origins of the game...This ridiculous, meticulous mowing of stripes is aimed at total uniformity from fence line to fence line. That's not golf, that's billiards." |
