Patrick,
I love the bunkers at Oakmont. I love the challenge of avoiding them at all cost knowing that I will more than likely be penalized if I don't. You can't daydream your way around that course. Well you can but you may shoot 1000.
Brookside CC (Canton) is one course that comes to mind where a majority of fairway bunkers have a raised lip or berm fronting them.
From Oakmont's Website...
Enter another Oakmont myth, the one that says although H.C. designed the course, it was W.C. who turned it into a legendary monster, throwing furrowed bunkers all over the place and making the greens wickedly fast. W.C was also the most vocal, with historic pronouncements. As to the many bunkers, he said, “A shot poorly played should be a shot irrevocably lost.” And as to the unrelenting difficulty of Oakmont, he sounded a bit like Captain Ahab in pursuit of that whale: “Let the clumsy, the spineless, the alibi artist stand aside.”
