re: Name a Course that beat you down even though you were playing your best at the time.

Okabourne kicks my arse every weekend and I've been playing there for 12 years
I have a lot of days out there where I am striking the ball so well, and really can't think of a shot that I'd want back or do something different, and still shoot 85.
Lowest score ever there was 78 this year and it's the only time I've broken 80 there in 12 years. (I'm a 9 index). I basically had all time highs in FW and GIR hit that round. It's the only way to go low there. You just absolutely cannot miss off the tee. Even some fairway hits leave you no shot to the green (left FW on #12 and #16 the biggest examples)
Hardest part about the course IMO is how hard it is to get up and down for par if you miss greens. You really have to have soft hands around the green and know where to land shots because the greens are so firm and fast, you get so much roll out. And most of your misses end up being short sided, downhill lie to a downhill green, etc
