the golf course opposite of the Dumb Blonde

[PThomas]

Tommy's pictures on that one thread inspired this:  what courses are the opposite of Doak's Dumb Blondes?  that is, one that are better than they first appear, those whose appeal are more than skin deep??

[Tom Huckaby]

Great question.

The obvious answer would have to be The Old Course.  Oh it does have it's beauty for sure, but it's definitely a subtle thing.

Desert Forest, especially when dormant.  (I believe they might be overseeding these days.)

For me, Seattle Golf Club.

I am thinking North Berwick - The last 6 holes were just incredible - far more than I expected.
Tom Doak suggested I would be disappointed by the Redan - I found it harder and longer than expeccted, but a very good hole.
The Berritz(sp?) green was just phenominal - lots of undulations and a very BIG valley to putt through if you missed on the wrong part of the green - which, of course I did.
The 14th was a short drivbe with a totally blind shot to the green - a wonderful hole!
If you get a chance to play here, don't miss it.
