I agree this is a funky hole that frustrated many players. It's just one that appeared to be fluky enough to level the field based on "skill" between males and females at a particular rating. I liked what Shawn, the designer did in terms of designing a hole with a technical roller or precision flex. However, what looked like a 3-trunked tree in the "fairway" you have to miss probably needs to be reduced to two or one stalk to allow a bit more room to allow a higher percentage of shots to get thru based on skill."One example"..."might".
Anything can happen on one hole. In this case, the scores for FPO trended up by rating, so the average score for ratings of about 940 might be equal - where the line going down crosses the line going up.
From the same data, we could also "conclude" that 860-rated FPOs are as good as 969-rated MPOs. Which would also not be realistic.
