its funny how he likes to build one of the most useless things in society. Public ones that integrate a natural setting aren't to bad but private ones always are such garbage.
Best Golf course I played on was actually Emerald probably 20 years ago.
Absolute shitty maintenance, the rough was rough, and no chance of using a golf buggy unless it was 4wd.
But, the green was manicured enough for putting, and was actually fun, instead of standing there like a ding dong in a mostly flat and manicured course where you could look across and see 5 different holes from where you were standing.
And, it was quiet, cheap, and the only other people there, were there to have fun. No pressure.
yeah we have some in our forest preserves and its just like you describe plus trees aplenty. So playing it is like taking a nature hike.
