Whatever is posted at the course is good enough. |

When I go to a new course, I really need a printed map in my hand--at least the very first round.
Of the courses I've played, I've eventually found a map for them--though not always on the web. The courses listed on this site are high quality, and I feel like adding a course map would help golfers try new ones out. Maybe the map is just a low quality image--maybe it's a high quality shot. For me, if the map has general features like trees, water, and tee and pin placements--that's all I need.
I just found this site today while searchin for some courses in KC for my visit this weekend. It's pretty sweet. Soon, I'll be workin on a submission for Oak Park in Wichita. |

i'd say it depends on the course. if it has good signage and next tee arrows either on the tee sign of by the basket, a map shouldn't be needed. unfortunately, very few courses have those features. playing with someone who has been to the course before is another good way to get by without a map.
when we go to new courses either to play or to gather info for the website, it is very helpful to have a course map, especially if the course has multiple tee and/or pin placements. league websites are usually good places to find course maps. we are planning to add printable maps on our site at some point, we just need to come up with a standardized way of making them.
good to hear you are planning on submitting a course. let us know if you have any questions about the procedures. |
