Having read all the posts in this thread I have formed my personal opinion on the larger holes. Outside of tournament play or money games it is my opinion that everyone should play under the rules with which they are comfortable and not worry about what anyone else is doing. I play 45 to 50 rounds on the execs in the winter and generally play with at least two random strangers. I have witnessed most playing the ball "up", occaisionally taking a mulligan, conceding their own five foot putts, and even throwing the ball from the sand. None of this bothers me as long as they keep up the pace. I don't feel that the integrity of the game played on the executive forces will be severely compromised by alternative six inch cups.

What the heck ever happened to "Junior Golf"?
As kids we would hang around the starter shack until someone would be kind enough to take us out.
"It's junior golf for you guys you know?"
"Right... we got it"
Tee it up..hit the short grass...carry to the 100 yard marker fire at the pin.
Hit the green, carry to 15 feet...putt to putter grip distance out from the edge of the cup..score it as in!
Otherwise...pick it up!
