Mike,
I appreciate your reply. It is a rather uncomplicated view of the game that a golf course is any place that embraces and celebrates the spirit of the game and requires the hitting of the ball from point A to B.

Bill,
Thanks...it reminded me of the simplistic attractions that first drew me to the game as a kid. The word "freedom" comes to mind.
In an age of provider imposed "service" and everything from cart paths to GPS to titanium clubs, it's nice to be reminded that those things are complicating distractions.
I can't speak for anyone else, but the secrecy of the place has nothing to do with why it is high on my wish list. Mike C's responses, and now Dave's and Mike's photos, are much closer to my feelings.
