Rock Creek opens in June.

Erin Hills has been open longer than twelve months, too.

The Castle Course in St. Andrews by DMK gets my vote! Walked all 18 in April & have never been as impressed by a course without hitting a ball...

But wait! Aren't all those trees considered an incredible evil in the World of GCA? Quite a few, afterall, are actually very in play. Vertical hazards. Oh no!


Trees are evil -- except when they are not.

Yes Jim;

And aren't they a beautiful fit on this gem? Wish I was there.
