So what is the best course you've played?
I think it should be based on the number of good holes, rather than its prestige. For example, the OC and the Brabazon have a couple of great holes but the others might seem a bit average.
The Scottish golf supplement in Golf Monthly (circa 1985) gave a comment along the lines 'It might sound heretical but given a choice between playing at Gleneagles or Boat of Garten I would choose the latter'. I never played Gleneagles but was encouraged to play the Boat several times, where I found the fairly ordinary par 3 first hole is followed by 17 excellent holes.
