If you want to irritate the architects of the golf course, ask them to name a “signature hole” in any of their courses. The term, once widely used as a marketing tool, has fallen in favor of industry circles, rejected as a concern for golf design. To focus on a hole, the argument goes, is to lose the attention of the course in its entirety.
Quite right.
Nevertheless Larger courses are as good as their component parts. And those components are holes. Their discussion in isolation should also be a fair game. This is the purpose of our new series of Inhidegolf video, “The Hole True,” which is Only available to members within Golf.
As her name suggests, the “truth of the hole” aims to shed light on the visible golf holes around the world through living images and detailed narratives. The pointing is not to ignore the course model, but to celebrate it by annoying it in its essential things. With each installment, our writers, videographers and other experts will present the details of a single, durable hole, describing the nuances of its design and the shooting required to play it. The goal is to illuminate, entertain, and maybe even inspire you to see these holes in person.
