Holler in the Hills is probably one of my current favorites as it was a top of the list course, during an impressive spring trip (perhaps a couple of unlisted courses beat it...). Seviren Lang was about as tough a course as any we played during the same trip; and earned high praise; from a difficulty stand point. In my world, if a course puts a severe whipping on you; it's probably automatically up there with the big boys....as long as it's interesting as well and not a pure chucker course.
Paul, glad Holler stuck with you. You should come back to see it now that everything is grown in. Those tunnels on 16 and 17 are way tighter now and number 9's basket has been moved back another ~45' beyond the boulder it was perched on. That hole shifted its emphasis to your upshot placement.
I will make the trip to Holler again and hit you up weeman. Thanks for the guide. A good guide/local group, is a nice thing.![]()
I've played 12 of those and designed (and maintain) Winter Park. I will be adding Ashe Cty and Stoney Hill today!!!
Played 41 of the 100. Possibly adding Winter Park this morning if we don't get washed out. Visited Silver Creek in the rain yesterday after crossing the lake but just drove around and didn't play it. Disappointed Steady Ed isn't on the top 100 list. I'd play Steady over Flip City any day. It's nice but it's apparent players are giving extra weight for the great care and manicuring of the course versus technical challenges. In thinking about it, I think Flip might be one of the best and appropriately challenging courses for Super Class competitions I've seen.
"Best" is meaningless if the audience is not defined......"Favorite" = "Best" if the audience is me and those who are like-minded.
I disagree, "best" is meaningless unless you break the course down hole by hole.
33, I believe. One third of the top one hundred.
I think I would actually prefer a system that was numeric on the backend, but had a frontend rating system visible to users that gave courses an A - F rating system, with pluses and minuses, of course.
For me, I think the letter grades would be a better scorecard and would take pressure away from courses being .01 better or worse than each other. I also think that it matches better how we think about courses. If I'm telling someone about a great course, I don't tell them it's a 4.23-rated course. I tell them it's "an A-list course."
I'd give letters that would be something like:
4.50-5.00 A+
4.20-4.49 A
4.00-4.19 A-
etc...
