I'm embarrassed to say that on some of these courses, I can't remember every hole anymore. (So much for the renowned photographic memory!) However, I figure that if I can't remember the hole in question, it probably does not qualify for a list of the 18 best holes in golf.
Adam Clayman has remembered a few of my Cowboys holes, but got the hole numbers wrong. What does it mean if you remember a hole, but not its hole number? Does that make it any less of a hole? Or does it just mean we all have less of a memory than we used to?
(Note: I often do the same thing, being able to recall a hole's features, but not its number. Of course, sometimes this comes from playing a course in a shotgun and playing out of order) In other cases, its just my 50 year old brain, methinks.
BTW, if I was picking a hole of my own to add to the list, Jason's suggestion of No. 6 at the Quarry would be it, or very close to it. In golfer surveys, most seem to like the 13th better. Both are good short par 4 holes for course variety, if that comes into play.
At Cowboys, it would be the uphill par 3 17th. Other candidates might be Colbert Hills No. 7, a 600 yard par 5 with a 100 elevated tee, or one of the double fw holes at Fortune Bay, like 4 or 16.
