Humble brag but getting to play Meadow Club this week and it will be my first Alister Mackenzie course to experience.

Has anyone played and have any MUST DOs/SEE for the course? Any standard Mackenzie features to pay attention to?

TIA

I can't speak specifically to this course but I have played Cypress and seen Augusta several times attending the Masters. Based on that I have two thoughts about his overall course design elements.

1) Natural design of course - it looks like the course was already there VS being built. It all just looks incredibly natural.

2) Camouflage- he studied camouflage in the army I believe and uses those techniques in his design. Hole #2 at Cypress (I think it's that one) looks as if there are bunkers everywhere and you have very little landing area from the tee. In reality you have a pretty large landing area. He uses subtlety to trick the mind and make you think there is more there than there really is.

Enjoy your round. Should be a special one.
