I would like golf a lot more if it used native terrain as part of the course. It's the whole bullshit with making the empty fields of grass that makes the game suck so hard.
Play golf in a damn forest, trees, bushes, creeks, and all. Next course, go play in an actual desert where the entire thing is a sand trap with whatever scant coverage exists. No putting there, you gotta find a way to get that ball to the cup (which might be full of sand if there's wind) another way. Next course, you're on a damn prairie with grasses as high as your waist, and you gotta hunt the damn ball down every stroke and hope the critters haven't stolen it.
Now that's a sport I can get behind
My first golf course I played and learned on was mostly desert and sagebrush.
You learn through pain when you're playing on hard desert clay. I never could afford decent courses growing up.
Damn! That would be a brutal terrain to play in.
I think you miss the whole point of what a sport is
Isn't the point to get out there, take some nice pictures for Instagram, then get drunk at the clubhouse?
So the answer is no then
