And that is just a few. Greens seem to be so large on newer courses as compared to some of the older ones. That would put more emphasis on precision shotmaking and risk versus reward. That is not necessarily the case with a small green. So I would probably say no to that.
Greens are larger due to the popularity of the game and the rounds being played.
They need to accommodate the crowds. The greens would get worn out otherwise. I am a big fan of the older style courses too. No, I have not. But I have a few projects in the works that might come about soon.
