i love OB. this game is too boring, every hole should have an island green with OB outside the 10m circle.

If you are in someone else's fairway, you deserve to be OB
Nobody should birdie a par 4 after shanking into the woods onto another fairway and coming at the hole from the opposite direction intended.
Totaly depends on the course. If there are not enugh natural obstacles and difficulties, then OB's make it more interesting.

OB: More or Less?
Less.

Hardly ever see shots to get out of trouble bc anywhere bad is OB
island greens are over-rated. i do like the current hole 17 on winthrop gold that offers three distinct options on the tee: go for the basket, play to the fat part of the green on the right, or lay up and play for a 3. most island green holes, however, are of the deuce or die variety. there needs to be some shape to such a hole. the "island" needs to be bigger than 10m radius and NOT circular.
Great point. Golf is a game of risk/reward. Forcing a shot that is all risk is not golf.
There is no such thing as artificial OB, man-made OB or natural OB.
Everything is in bounds until the course designer designates it otherwise.
Period.
So if a CD does not call a lake OB, then you can jump in and play out of the lake?
