  Heck, it is hard to nail it down to one hole........there are so many great holes.....and it is a pleasure to play any of them.
  
  Merion, Congressional and Pebble Beach for full stroke play courses have some sensational picturesque holes......
  
  Then some of the CTTH courses have hole to die for as well.....like music, just too hard to state a specific hole....good thread Gary
  
  p.s. any hole that yields a birdie is a good one for me :))

  What's yours?

  Oddly my mind goes to one I still miss. #18 Oakmont was a winner with the fall colors.
  
  Maybe we'll get it back one day. They've made so many changes to the course since WGT first photographed it, some will be next to unrecognizable for us. I've suspected that that fact figured into Oak's management change regarding WGT.

  Of COURSE! But the question was, 'Which hole...'? not which course.

  yeah, it's gorgeous all right...IMO the prettiest that allows stroke play. However...I never play it with my good balls because it eats them voraciously...

  As you move up in tiers you will find, you lose very few balls. You learn the courses and how to avoid hazards. Sometimes, laying up is better part of valor. 18th at Congressional is an example on that.
