ImageThe 449 yard par 4 11th @ Golden Gate Heights is the first of six (6) bayside holes on the back nine. You can let er' rip off the tee but beware of the 'pit bunkers' on either side of the fairway. Your second shot is slightly downhill to a pesty green well protected by yet another 'pit bunker' nestled in the right front. Par is good here and if you avoid trouble a few birdies may be had.

Thanks Jeff. With this design program we have the freedom to make up any BS we want but I can actually visualise this style of bunkers coming to a golf course someday. It's basically a more shallow pot bunker with flattened sand at the bottom. I've been making much larger waste bunkers for course's for quite awhile that are the same thing only much bigger. The latest I think was Palm Harbor where I had waste bunkers throughout. We'll see how they're accepted after the release. LOL

ImageThe Signature Hole at Golden Gate Heights is a 214 yard par 3. The 12th offers a scenic view of the Bay as well as a challenging golf hole! To reach the dance floor you must carry the water, hazard area and a normal bunker without overshooting only to end up in another 'pit bunker'. As usual here the closer to the pin the better. Enjoy the scenery and be wary.
