| Abstract/Contents: | Describes the three historic "schools" of golf course design: the Penal, Strategic, and Heroic. Suggests that in the future a "Fun School" of golf course architecture should emerge. The "Fun School" would be characterized by short, versatile, aesthetically pleasing courses that challenge the average golfer without being too difficult. |
