Luck as part of hole design

[Matt Schoolfield]

this is a link to my chapter on The Principle of Chance: https://www.golf-architecture.com/poga-chapter-19

Thanks for the input Richard and for sharing that chapter. I excitedly read it, and it seems that we disagree pretty substantially on the nature of luck and skill. Still, you argue your case well, and you've obviously thought hard about it.

Thanks again, it was a good read.

Thanks, Matt.  I appreciate your perspective as well.  Divergent viewpoints are always a good thing in a forum such as this.  You may like the chapter on randomness as well:  https://www.golf-architecture.com/poga-chapter-17[/size] [/color]
