As you can see, I have a preference for bold design. Courses that provide variety in course setup, large contours, and courses that focus on fun and excitement rather than fairness are definite turn-ons. I look for 18 different mental and physical challenges, plus artistic and strategic experiments on behalf of the architect. When the natural and artificial blend together, everything is better.
