Re: It's Soapbox Time

I agree and disagree at the same time. huh???? Well, equipment has gotten out of control. Imagine what Bobby Jones or Walter Hagen could have done with today's equipment!!!! There neds to be a limit on the equipment.

I do agree that the courses in the US are set up for the big bombers. Why don't they put a bunker in the 300 - 350 range or like dannyra suggested, let it grow over with rough. I know when playing SimGolf, I always design my par 5s that way players have to play to the landing areas. Also, lets get some multiple tiers on these 10,000 sqft greens! But please, no more bunkers in the middle of the greens....
