As being coaxed out of the discussion above by some contributors; the unnecessary expense of the wrongly placed attitude of selling the bombastic. Marketing the GCA's service as the most artistic and elaborate, beautiful fields of golfing nirvana, along with the extraordinary over engineered and over shaped violations of the land that adds nothing to the actual required array of routing and features to offer the player a nice round of golf. Of course TD says it well above. Wouldn't it be nice if some of these big name archies, unfortunately known for their elaborate features and landartscape would be less greedy to oversell the client, and tell them all the superfluous features merely adds to the ultimate reduction of golfer participation due to the discouragement to pay so much to play a much more simple game than they market the aura of golf to be? I agree, if this bombastic campaign to sell golf as artscape beauty and iidylic fields with McMasion homes surrounding the game, along with all the unnecessary infrastructure added to the construction process were the ethic at the start of the game, we'd all just be participating in other Scotish games like maide leisk, caber toss, stone putting, curling, or kilt flashing.
