I haven't played all of the top 20-30 of Golf Week's Classic list. Nor any full complement of the top 20-30 lists of worldwide courses. My gut feeling is that No. 2 would fall somewhere around 50. It may be closer to 70...or perhaps 38.
Shotmaking is an interesting word. I feel it is used here as if we all might agree on its meaning. I doubt this.
Golf shots are about choices, carry, accuracy, interest, intrigue, stamina, ability, joy, faith, luck — plus many other fine qualities.
No. 2 provides very challenging shot value. Many of these are similar from my experience. Save a few, they were not very interesting on the whole — I was asked to make similar choices throughout, and also was given similar landscapes from which to accomplish this. The hallmark of the course is, as has been suggested, in its subtle nature. This is a very acceptable quality.
