Streamsong 4th 'Big' Course, Kidd

Begins and ends at Black Clubhouse.  The article suggests this was the 'winning' formula for selecting Kidd's routing.  IMO this was always going to be the case because the facilities at Streamsong (Lodge, Red/Blue Clubhouse, and Black Clubhouse) are massive capital undertakings. 


I do have a favor to ask Kidd (and any architects):  please try to reduce the green to tee walks.  (Mammoth Dunes and Streamsong Black seem to ignore this courtesy)

Charlie,


I agree that short green to tee walks are nice, if possible.

I can only think of three other places that would even be a possibility (Sand Valley, Pinehurst CC, and Bandon) but none of them seem likely.
