Tyler,
Apologies Laddie, I somehow missed that you beat me to it. I wish we had a late-afternoon photo from the front left, which would better illustrate the wild rolls and creases. There are actually some fairly easy pin positions amidst the contours and segmentation, you just have to be crafty enough to use them to advantage.
However, taken as a whole, the green is every bit as maddening as #1 at NGLA. DeVries and I spent a half hour sticking tees in the green and putting from different angles; I'm still astonished that some of the members didn't have a coronary at how severe #3 is. Don't get me wrong, I love it - but not everybody has as twisted a sense of humor as I do.
His re-contouring of #13 at Green Hills - albeit with less square footage - was easily as wild and perhaps more-so. The collective I.Q. of the club was insufficient to decipher its complexities and they opted to blow it up and rebuild it. The membership constantly crows about their MacKenzie pedigree, but evidently can only tolerate a watered down version. Stupid is as stupid does.
That hole actually holds a special place in my heart as my grandfather made an ace there in 1946 the very first time he every played golf - with a three wood and practice ball. They went off the back nine so it was the 4th tee shot of his life. The newspaper article quoted my grandfather kidding that he was "giving up the game because it's too easy."
Golf God was listening. Grandpa became an avid golfer for the rest of his life, but he never made another one.
