What is mountain golf?
« on: November 25, 2009, 11:26:43 PM »
Is there a consensus of what mountain golf is on the board? Is it a course in a mountain setting like Banff or Jasper, or do you actually have to be playing on the side of a mountain like Chateau Whistler or Greywolf?

To me, mountain golf is not golf in the flat land next to a mountain. It must have uneven lies, upshill, down hill, and side hill. Chateau Whistler would be considered mountain golf, not the other
Live Jupiter, Fl, was  4 handicap, played top 100 US, top 75 World. Great memories, no longer play, 4 back surgeries. I don't miss a lot of things about golf, life is simpler with out it. I miss my 60 degree wedge shots, don't miss nasty weather, icing, back spasms. Last course I played was Augusta
