The NXT Challenge
« on: September 01, 2004, 01:20:01 PM »
We've all seen the commercials for Titleist's NXT and Architectue on acid courtesy of John Cleese (Amazing that they can poke fun at themselves with how far the ball is flying and the design changes necessary to combat the modern ball!)

Design a course (Within reasonable expectations of being built) on just statitistical specs that would test the modern day Superstar.

My offering:

Bengal National:

Par 70
2 Par 3's (475 Total Yards, 220, 255)
16 Par 4's (7,340 Total Yards/ 1X at 310, 15X 400-500 Yards)
7,815 Total Yards (Expandable)
229.9 Yards per average shot/34 total
Green complexs with very few bunkers, but a lot of ampitheatring a la 17 at Winged Foot East.
Fairway bunkers deep enough a la troon to prevent getting home
Tee shots with some forced shapings in each direction.
Some blind tee shot landing areas
Water fronting some par 3's
Stream winding through property.

Sound like fun for them???
