I count 44 bunkers at Augusta. 😬 Is there an inside joke I'm missing? 😁 Augusta didn't have 44 bunkers when it was built. It's more of an Augusta 1934 bunker challenge. Ah that makes sense. Was thinking maybe 22 per 9. I'm not too keen on the history of Augusta. |

To be honest the reason for me knowing the answer to your question is me asking the same question to MattF a month or so ago. |

I know its sort of a weird one, but I also wanted to try and add a couple new ideas for elements to keep it fresh. Dan challenged me to do that ages ago and I've yet to attempt it. |

My CC course is looking like it might fit quite comfortably within that. Depends on how annoyed I get with how easy it plays through testing. 👍 I think that's a fun challenge for sure. |

I can finally confirm that after countless false starts, I actually have something resembling a plot! Going for somewhere between Chambers Bay and classic British links in theory, but if that’s how it ends up remains to be seen. Although I also fear that my course is going to be chock full of cliches...

So, in terms of the criteria our courses are judged on. Does a beach count as a bunker??

6 holes done and I like what I’ve made so far. I’m trying to include as many different holes as possible like valley holes, seaside beach holes, mountain holes, and cliff side holes.

So, in terms of the criteria our courses are judged on. Does a beach count as a bunker?? As a general rule, I'll say no. But really, the spirit of the idea is what matters. If you're using it to skirt a required element and you pick that one to be judged, it might not get the maximum points for that element. Just use your best judgement, we believe in you. |

That's fair, I'm weighing up between a beach or a rocky cliff edge but if it was to be a beach it would be out of bounds for sure as its a steep climb back up. May just go with the rocky cliff type design to avoid any potential issue there |

Is it advisable to add the following to one's course overview when submitting? ---
"If you find yourself hitting a blind shot, you best be damn well certain I meant it that way!"
I have several shots where, if you challenge the hazard you have clear sight and a good angle to the green, but if you bail out or choose the safer option you could end up w/ a blind approach on a less than optimal angle... I don't want to get dinged for 'unintentional blindness'. I've been very deliberate with were a player is blind.

I'm going to assume that, with a what seems to be an incredibly experienced judging pool, they'll know the difference between intentional and unintentional blindness when they see it. Just my 0.02. |
