Recently I looked at some course photos of a famous course, one on an open treeless location that might or might not have recently been recreated.
I then went and found not some computer programme or even some plasticine but my sons large box of lego, now residing unused for decades in a cupboard.
With a little dexterity I replicated some holes with lego. Raised bits, sunken bits, yellow bits, blue bits etc.
Then I got thinking a bit more and found some of my sons old toy soldiers and small vehicles. A bit more study from different angles and a military training ground including assault course appeared. Bit like a course I played on as a kid myself back 50+ years ago.
And then my little grey cells went into overdrive and I got thinking of an idea for a golf course and a paint-balling site at the same location.
And then I woke up.
Any similarities with the founding and evolution of golf?
