Just curious if Mr. Doak is still surfing the web: Can you envision a version of a Composite Course using Pacific Dunes and Old Mac?

Why the heck would you do that when you could just play them both?

Why?  Why Brookline, or Melbourne?  I've never played either but I suspect it's to find the best 18 holes.  Or perhaps the fun is in the trying...?

Composite courses suck...I'm sorry, but it's like putting the lips, bosom and hair (not to mention legs and hips) from five separate girls together.  It's an attention grabber but worthless in reality.  Isn't The Country Club, despite its history, a weak link in any rota?  That it has to go to a composite course to be recognized either speaks ill of the courses or of us.

There are enough style differences between the two courses that they wouldn't fit well together, unlike Royal Melbourne or The Country Club. Do you have a possible routing, or started a list of holes you want to be excluded, or definitely included?

Absolutely not - two birds of a different feather mate - Play PD as PD, OM as OM, BT as BT and BD if you really need to burn a round.
