开进乡村路边一条原色水泥铺就的车道，不宽，来到一长列原木造就的房子，穿过木板的大厅，雪松片覆盖的屋顶，再来到屋后的草地上。这是前任屋主自己设计的十八洞高尔夫球场的起点。信步前行，不经意间，步入一个大人返璞归真之旅。 有的fairway 开口很窄，两边两列杉林，让人哈哈笑说这杉林里该有多少球啊。别急，还有fairway正中堵了两棵大树的，不管管球场的小伙子数次提议，屋主就要让他的大树堵路，又有从开球点到果岭深V的地型，我开始犯愁，我这S wedge该怎么巨型才能打上这几乎五十度倾斜纵高近七，八十yard的大坑地形啊， 哈哈哈哈，我听到了设计者从遥远处传来哈哈的笑声，我也忍不住笑了。第十八洞索性是前面有数棵树，后有一个如镜之湖，镜湖后一小岛为果岭，我又笑了，这湖里该见过多少球啊。

倘佯球场之际，有鹿来迎，在不远处果岭边，还有两只美丽的鹿睁着大眼睛看过来，似童话世界的Bambi. 球道边的swamp有水獭在忙筑水坝工程，据说还有一次出现过一只小小baby 黑熊出来视察了一下球场。球场对鼹鼠的管理很有经验，两边时有一两个捕箱，草地上不见鼹鼠的小拱堆。还有一条小铁道贯穿其间，阳光下，嗅着浓浓的青草香，做个大孩子。 这时我发现只有那充满原木气息的房子，才是最配这球场与大自然的，这是一种无华归真的境界。

回到大屋，我更能欣赏打扮成50年代氛围，闪着趣味霓虹灯，黑白地板可爱型的冰激凌屋，可以展开舞步也可开大party的厚木地板大厅，墙上有古雅的挂毯，木雕，花草绘本与艺术品，没有任何张扬的气息，只让你觉得很放松。噢，还有洗手间的水盆，也很好玩，你们可能一开始要想一下如何倒水呢。哈哈。如果您近来在思考生活的意义，那这次活动一定会对您有所启发， 而且答案很精彩。

会长和管球场的小伙子谈好 我们将设3个KP 洞 （#1，，#11 and #15），1 个longest drive 洞 (#8)和1个straightest drive 洞 (#2)。球场策略如下：
