Just a quick comment on hole 7 for the short course. You are correct that the short course pad is longer than the shorter pad that is used for the long layout. This is because the short layout pad is a par 4 where the long course pad is a par 3. While the longer pad doesn't really work for a par 3 (the green would be nearly impossible to get to in 1 shot), it works great for beginners who throw a 150ish ft shot to the landing zone and then another 150-200ft to the green. Hope this clarification makes sense and thanks for the review!
