Design Disasters - Webble Beach

That guy is an idiot. Webb was built in the 20’s well before the concrete was placed there in the 1960’s and later.

For people that paint themselves as the gold standard of golf course architecture analysis, the Fried Eggs boys are pretty clueless on things like city planning, infrastructure, drainage, etc.

They’re like yeah let me shite all over these three holes that were built 40-60 years before the concrete drainage, road expansion, and apartment complexes came along.

These holes may actually suck. I wouldn’t know, but it’s not the course designers fault that all this shite invaded the course aesthetic.

Not really the point of the segment. Some
of them originally were actual design disasters. You still see some posted, but now they’re mainly oddities and questionable decisions made by either city planners, course ownership, etc.

There’s one recently where an elevated train essentially sits over the fairway and another where the back tees of a subdivision course are across the street and in a front yard.

It’s actually pretty fun to hit over that canal. It’s also fun to watch my buddies balls land in it and bounce back and forth.

It is a high pressure shot for sure
