???? Is that REALLY what is involved in creating a Championship Golf course. It is more about designing a nice and desirable to play course that can be surrounded by many premium priced home building sites. However, the lack of Championship Golf south of 44 proves that "the field of dreams" is a false premise. The new motto seems to be, "if we don't build it, they will still come anyways", and we will have more land left to build more homes!
