Tim-I agree that not only did Ross consistently produce solid routings but he was as good as anyone at finding natural green sites that he tied seamlessly into the next tee. I hear some of the modern designers say that they are willing to introduce a longer walk or cutback to the next tee so as not to forego what they believe to be an exceptional hole but this comes with a price in that the walk can become disjointed. The player knows whether it works or not regardless of what the Archie may say to defend his decision.
