To answer one of your questions the best forum I have found to read about golf course architecture is GolfClubAtlas.com. Doak even posts on there once in awhile. As for my home courses I currently am at The Concession Golf Club in Fl for the winter which I will comment a little about first…. Hardest course in FL I have played. You cannot let your guard down on any shot as it will come back to bite you with a big number. From the tips it is 155 slope, even from the member tees of 6460 it is 146! The Concession if a Nicklaus/Jacklin collaboration with Mr. Nicklaus having most of the final say and like most of his recent works the course begins and ends around the greens. Guess I need to learn how to chip the ball finally, putting from 50 yards off the green doesn't work with some of the bunkering here. Best hole on the course in my opinion is the short par 4 8th. Water on 3 sides of a small green and a massive bunker on the other, might be arguably the hardest hole on the course and a great example that length isn't always the answer to toughening up a golf hole. Concession in general is a great test of golf but you may feel worn out mentally because it can take a toll on you, but it is great fun everyday I try to take it on!! Great fun factor! More on summer course later….
