When in Florance I much perfer Ocean Dunes to Sand Pines. IMO its tougher and you have to play it 3 or 4 times before it doesn't "homer" you, (really like those types of courses); I found that the 1st couple of times there to either play to the 150 marker or top of the hill. Sand Pines is better kept, again IMO. There is another course about 5 miles south of Bandon, Bandon Crossings, very good course and about a quarter of the price of BD. It is independent of BD and the BD caddies will play there.

IMO its hard to compare one era to another b/c of equipment. Do though feel that Jack had to deal with more competition than Tiger. I can't remember who, but some past PGA tour player said that there are more very good golfers today, but in Jacks day there were more great golfers. Most the time when Jack won someone, G Player, Arnie, T Watson, L Tarvino, was nipping at his heels. At this time Jack still holds the record for the most wins, so I've got to go with Jack.

Not only do I have a 3i, I also have a 1 & 2i in the bag. I'll hit them off of the deck or tee'd, but get more distance off of the tee.

Golf and fly fishing for me.
