Love it.If you can't figure out why people love it, just look around! I remember each hole, although not the details. At the very least, it's solid from 1 all the way through 18.
Is that the hole where they had to move the tees up for a TV match in the 60's with the Big Three because Gary Player couldn't reach the green with a driver in the wind?

Bart:Just curious, when were you there?As an FYI, the course is currently closed for refurbishment (they took this as a good oppportunity since the hotel was closed by the earthquake damage last year).Rees Jones has the job.Here's more detail from a press release issued by owner Prince Resorts:http://www.princeresortshawaii.com/images/interior/maunakea/release-Mauna-Kea-Golf-Course-Closing.pdf
