[QUOTE="Wexahu, post: 3001409, member: 72863"] I didn't say it wasn't a good test, or a hard hole. It obviously is because pros basically can't hit driver there (or most of them even 3-wood) unless they want to get really stupid. That's why they approach from 190. But chances are if a TPC course had a 470-yard hole that doglegged at 230 yards and forced guys to hit less than 3-wood off the tee it'd be called a crappy hole, that's just the nature of these arguments. That was my point. Long par 4s that literally [U]force[/U] players to lay way back are not well designed holes [B]IMO, [/B]whether that design was intentional as in new courses or a result of technology as the case with Colonial. I can assure you John Bredemus or Perry Maxwell did not design that hole with the idea that the dogleg was going to start 30-50 yards short of where guys drivers land. [/QUOTE]
