The MOST Ridiculous Golf course...EVER!!!

http://www.cnn.com/2012/12/21/sport/golf/golf-china-crazy-golf-mission-hills/index.html?hpt=hp_c2

Why on earth any serious golfer would pay to play this course, is beyond me. I'll pass.

Did you even read the article? The course is a combination of mini golf and real golf. I don't think it's intended for "serious" golfers.

Another example of building a course that's too difficult and too expensive. China is booming in golf, will they offer courses for beginners, ladies, seniors, etc...? Doubtful.

Donald Trump would love it!

I think it would be a blast! I'd play it in a heartbeat. Then again, I just love to play. I don't get too caught up in all of the elitist garbage.

Did they not learn anything from Caddyshack 2?

I do think it would be fun to play. If i ever make it out to china when it is done i hope to maybe play it.

Why not? It would be a change of pace

Looks a lot like golden tee!

While on the subject, I don't ever care to play TPC Sawgrass again, because it is too difficult and tricked up for my game. I quite enjoy starting and finishing with the same golf ball.

Donald Trump's new course in Scotland also looks to be too "overbuilt." Donald should learn to play with hickory shafted clubs to truly appreciated excellent golf course design, in my humble opinion.

Gil Hanse, at Castle Stuart, seems to have done a better job of testing/delighting the golfer with his design.

I'll take a handsome, straightforward course with one or two blind shots, thank you. The hole that they call "the pit" at North Berwick looks like fun, as well.

Yeah, this.

That course looks great! A friend and I were talking about a Game of thrones themed course this summer, this goes beyond that.
Imagine being the Pro there lolz.

I love noodles and i love golf! I think it looks amazing and brilliant!

I love novelty golf courses. Never anything like this. We have one that plays up and down a ski resort/mountain... massive elevation changes 120' drops on 190 yard par 3.... so much fun. Tee off down the mountain etc. Every single person I've taken there says the same thing. Have to come back.... it's so much fun to play something different. Every now and then it's fun to have to put your tee shot just over the old tennis court, left of the lift house, just short of the giant plaster bear.... and leave enough room to clear snow machines on your second.



Edit: reading that over makes me want to go back so bad... can't wait till April

Looks like fun to me.

Looks fun. At least it's honest about what it is.

I'll give you that the chopstick and noodle hole is a bit over-the-top but the others look fun, kinda like Golden Tee. I'd give them a shot.

It lools like a fun course to play but maybe belongs on the vegas strip

I'd love to play there!
