Mike, inspired by this website, I've just about routed an 18 hole course in my mind, on some spectacular dunes by the sea.  I've convinced myself it would make a world top 50...

Mike, Paul - I'm guessing you know, but just in case:

"I'm a nobody/Are you a nobody too" - Emily Dickinson.

She was not an golf course architect (though apparently she DID have some opinions on the subject...)

I'm not an architect either (I don't even play one on TV).

I probably speak for most: what a treat it is to have the professionals offering their opinions/facts here. I can't think of another profession (musicians, novelists, politicians etc) in which the top guys would share so generously with the amatuers -- thanks

Archie,
No, but if Elvis was there you can skip a few steps.....I think he speaks to some of the dead guy architects up there daily.....
