Thanks for the comments and notes, all (Tom, I've noted Eric's lead involvement in the Sedge Valley section). I'm flattered to have my work read by people here.
Re: "rogues' gallery," maybe a bit of excessive playfulness/rhetorical license taken on my part there. In cartoon/comic book-speak, the phrase describes the cast of characters superheroes do battle with, so to the extent a golfer might fancy him or herself in that role, I suppose if they curse the names of enough architects under their breath, they might assemble a rogues' gallery in their minds. Either way, point taken re: the wording and noted for the future.
