It's not much of a golf course, but it was brilliant marketing by TV.

"Who will want to live next to the highway?"

"Probably no one."

"Hey wait, I have a great idea!"

"Lets stick some flags into the ground next to the highway, call it a golf course and charge people extra to live next to it!"

I played it once, when it first opened. Shot 75 from the Golds. Not because of talent, but because it's ridiculously easy and if you know how to hit a stinger ... the ball will roll & run for 100 yards.
