Golden Gate Heights
Re: Golden Gate Heights
Hole 13 @ Golden Gate Heights is a 439 yard par 4. You have the option off the tee to aim for the fairway to the right which is a larger target but you need to lay up to avoid overshooting. The left fairway is a much tighter shot but allows for the longer drive and could knock off up to 30 yards on your approach. The green is protected on both the left and right front with 'pit bunkers' and of course the waste area and water is a constant. This is a fun little bayside hole with options and challenges for all.
Views from the tee, both fairway approaches, looking back from the landing area left and two green views as well.

Re: Golden Gate Heights
That is an awesome looking course! Is it just me, or are the graphics in JN6 better than those in PGA 2000? I may have to give the JN6 designer a go. Again, great job!
Re: Golden Gate Heights
Thanks Jim! The JN6 designer package is really unbelievable considering it's age. I learn something new with every design I do. You should really give it a shot!!

Re: Golden Gate Heights
Hi Steve,
this course just keeps getting better. I love the aesthetics and I agree with Brad H that the rockwork is fantastic; as good as I have seen on any course. We are so lucky that you keep punching them out.
Cheers
Brad

Re: Golden Gate Heights
Thanks Brad. Unfortunately we just aren't getting any new designers to keep the game going. Seems like there is just a handful of us left.BradTheDad wrote: ↑June 4th, 2023, 8:00 pm Hi Steve,

Hope you had a nice vacation, Welcome back.

Re: Golden Gate Heights
The 460 yard par 4 14th @ Golden Gate Heights will certainly challenge the golfer. The tee shot is ever so slightly uphill and for a clear shot at the green you need every yard you can muster. Most will be faced with a blind approach that must carry the trees while avoiding the dreaded 'pit bunker' and of course the waste area and bay! Putting will be challenging but fair and par is excellent.

Re: Golden Gate Heights
Really a string of neat holes along the bay! I could see the PGA playing this course if it existed, as part of the west coast swing
