Yes, Augusta has to be #1 on bucket list. The purity of it all. Played Scottish courses and not impressed with these former sheep herding fields. The surroundings are better than the courses. Pebble beach has about 6 good holes, rest are mediocre at best.
Ocean Course at Kiawah, scenery better than the golf course.
Scenery does not make a great golf course, pure golf does. If you want scenery
go the mountains, if you want golf go to Augusta.
Amen.

I’ve had the good fortune to play many great tracks, including The County Club in Boookline, Winged Foot, Shinnecock, Beth Page Black, The Ocean course on Kiawah Island (three times), and many rounds at the TPC at River Highlands. Of those, the Ocean Course was my favorite. But dam, how could any golfer possibly not choose Augusta National, unless they are lucky enough to have already played it?
