Your Local Dream 18

[New013]

We've done Dream 18's in the past but I thought it would be interesting to see what people thought would be their dream 18 of local holes. So go through your local courses and decide what is the best #1, 2, 3...etc and make a dream 18.

Also, if you have multiple courses that have more than 18 holes feel free to dream 21 where you pick out the best holes from the 19-27 range and stick them anywhere you want in the extra three. Or hey if you only have one course that goes over 18 and you want to give it competition take any honorable mentions from 1-18 that didn't quite make your first 18 and stick them there.

Here's my 21.

I do like 13 at UNC, just don't like where the pin is. I would love to see the pin down the hill about 70 more feet on over to the right where the old pin for the hole was.

Not enough scoring seperation on the shorter pin. I 3 it pretty regularly with just 2 midranges.

I think a further / tougher pin would create the need for more aggressive tee shots, which the current pin does not.

agreed, i never saw it back there but youre right about the need to force more agressive tee shots.

The old pin was over to the right and 13 was two holes.

The old 13 (which was the second hole) played from around the turn and threw to a pin over to the right behind the cedars about 90 feet right of where it is now. Lots of righty rollers / sidearms on the hole.
