No trees in the fairways. Huge, flat greens "just" fast enough. Many elevated tees and fairways sloping down toward the greens. No uphill shots. Giant sequoa trees around the hole course to block any wind.
This will give us hackers a real chance at a few birdies and eagles. 
The word will spread about how easy it is and I'll be turning people away.
I'll make a bazillion dollars. The first year.
Anyone want to finance this? 
Anyone doubt it wouldn't work? |
Sounds like a plan to me
But I would eliminate all par 3's, those are the work of the devil himself. Give me a 500yd par 5 & usually I can par it or at worst bogey. Give me a par 3 & I will get that same big fat 5 almost everytime.
How's about opening up the hole to 6" also? Putting is far too critical.
You can have a killer drive, excellent approach shot, best chip ever, but then miss a 4' putt & your score is doomed.
