Pat,
Three of us, all fairly accomplished golfers, played Tamarack CC in October, albeit in a light snow/ sunshine mixed up weather day. The greens are huge, and, on the first tee looking over to #3, I mused, "how could anyone miss THAT green?" At the end of the day, one ball found the green in regulation out of all the par 3's.....1 for 12.
I think you're right.
