When isn't shot making rewarded - a quirky hole or a straight forward hole both reward shot making. The difference maybe the quirky hole requiring a more imaginative approach or an unusual alternative startegy or a golf shot not often faced (and perhaps an extreme punishment, although not necessarily).

All the golf holes that MikeC mentioned require mechanical skill, but they also require additional thought because they present an unusual (quirky) circumstance. Golf courses that require more than just mechanical skill, that make you think and use your imagination, that are unpredicatable, and that throw an occasional quirky or unusual puzzle at you along the way are fun.

An example of a quirk over the top would be Martha Burke.

Live Jupiter, Fl, was  4 handicap, played top 100 US, top 75 World. Great memories, no longer play, 4 back surgeries. I don't miss a lot of things about golf, life is simpler with out it. I miss my 60 degree wedge shots, don't miss nasty weather, icing, back spasms. Last course I played was Augusta
