Here's link to Jeroen Pit's large archive of photos from the links and heath courses of Holland and Belgium.
Not all the best courses of this type are in GB&I !

It has been posted before by Jeroen (in the old, currently unaccessible, archives),  but I thought it was worth revisiting.  

The green complexes at Royal Zoute look especially interesting and the some of the holes at Haagsche look wild(14 and 15 look a bit like Durban to me).

Great stuff Paul (and Jeroen)

Makes me realize what a stupid I was when I worked for a summer 45 miles from De Panne and went to the beach rather than the golf course!  Was it the Belgian babes, perhaps?  Nah, that's an oxymoron.....

PS--is Jeroen's classic picture of the heather fairway on that link?

No it isn't there. It certainly was a classic GCA pic, I've never seen anything like it!

Here's a few of Jeroen's pics brought over from his sit to whet the appetite.



Tee shot 14th at Haagsche:

Looking back down 14th:




Tee shot at the epic 15th Haagsche:



The approach at the 15th:



Royal Zoute looks to have plenty of swales and false fronts in its greens.  I've read that this could be a Top 100 World course.  The European Tour players loved it.

I think this is the GCA classic picture you were referring to:



all heather fairways

[Brad Tufts]

where is that?

[Paul Turner]

That's the photo.  It's like a negative image!

Here are some of the greens at Zoute, it's often difficult to make out contour from photos but I can see the false fronts or swales to shrug off a misdirected shot.
