The Roulette of Golf

[tarheel]

Well, for lack of other things to do, I think I will periodically post within this thread a series of golf rounds at places which I will play at random in my database of 1470 JN6 courses. I will literally get a random course, and play with random conditions, weighted towards mild to medium winds. If a course comes up for a second time, I'll just add the next round to the post or possibly skip and find a different random one. I plan to post herein just the details of the course, keeping opinions to myself with the exception of a difficulty rating, based on my round, which will be either easy, moderate, hard or extreme (exclusive of wind setting…so will reflect landing size, obstructions, green slopes, yardages, etc). If its not in the database at the clubhouse, I'll get it added. I WELCOME people adding any comments to the thread, memories of courses, designers, etc.

Here is my randomization procedure:
Random course
Winds: Roll 1-20 (1-6 mild, 7-14 medium, 15-18 strong, 19-20 gusty)
Ground: Roll 1-20 (1-5 Hard, 6-15 Normal, 16-20 Hard)
Pin: Roll 1-5
Fog: Roll 1-20 (1-3 have random fog 1-100) (if playing with soft conditions 1-7 gets fog)

You will be able to find links in this main thread to individual courses as I play them, and I'll try to put the links alphabetically to help you herein.

Each post will have the course, screen shots, .round file to play along with, yardage from black tees, course type, and a link to the course for d/l. I will also include the date of my play and possibly dates of previous place that I have listed in the game.

The purpose of this is just to give peeps a reason to keep the game alive and maybe invite you to try some courses you've not played before.
