Car Racing Sports

On our way back from a recent round of golf, Fritz and I were discussing the way most golfers evaluate golf courses. We`ve had this discussion before, and it inevitably gets around to my heartfelt conviction that trees do not enhance the `golfing experience`.

Most golfers in North America assume that golf is not golf without tree-lined fairways. If I am not mistaken, this is a bias created by a century of golf course design compliments of a relatively small number of trend-setting designers. In Canada, Stanley Thompson was the main man. His course designs can be found across the country, and inevitably they feature lush green (soft) fairways lined with majestic trees.

Of course there are many reasons for this, both practical and esthetic. For starters, eastern North America has lots of trees, and just as important, it is impossible to replicate the sandy turf of Scotland or Ireland in other parts of the world that do not share the same climate.
