					<title>The Florida Sand Belt</title>
					<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m standing on the fourth tee of the Pine Barrens Course at World Woods Golf Club near Brooksville, Florida, and half of everything I see is sand. To the right of the fairway, a vast wasteland juts into the grass, as if the entire hole has suffered a violent rupture and begun to sink into some sort of netherworld. It&#8217;s striking to behold and clearly hazardous to play from&#8212;yet I&#8217;m aiming my drive right over the heart of it. From centuries-old British links to &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>Reader&#8217;s Tee</title>
					<description><![CDATA[Son Day at Cordillera We live in Florida but travel to the mountains in the summertime to beat the heat. My son, Logan, and I recently got back from Colorado, and one of the courses we played was the Summit at Cordillera in Edwards, just outside Vail. It was great to play golf in such a scenic setting, but for me the best part was getting to spend quality time with my fourteen-year-old son. Diane Wood Boca Raton, Florida The Bandon Air Force In July 2006, four of us played our way from &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>Winter Weapons</title>
					<description><![CDATA[The best late-season releases of 2008 underscore two trends in equipment. With woods it&#8217;s adjustability, as new shaft-connection systems advance tinkering possibilities. With irons it&#8217;s toward increasing forgiveness (although as Tiger fans we had to show you the maestro&#8217;s new blade)&#8212;clubs with broad soles and deep centers of gravity (CG) designed to get golfers attacking flags. Callaway FT-iQ Callaway claims this driver is 35 percent straighter than the FT-i, the &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>The Player&#8217;s Paradise</title>
					<description><![CDATA[To a man stranded in the desert with an empty canteen, the difference between natural spring water and a trickle from the tap is hardly relevant: It&#8217;s all good. To a Northeasterner in February, his home course entombed in ice and snow, the thirst for golf is just as desperate. At times like this, the vision of a white ball sailing into the deep blue sky over the turquoise sea appears like a mirage, lingering with the faint sound of steel drums and the scent of rum, just out of reach. &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>Passing the Torch</title>
					<description><![CDATA[In the camera&#8217;s view screen is my nephew, Patch&#8212;my sister Joan&#8217;s son&#8212;posed in mock astonishment beside a sign that says Crapo Hill Solid Waste Recycling Plant . At fifteen, he is built like a fully extended ball retriever and his once-red hair has darkened to brown. We are stopped down the street from the Titleist factory in New Bedford, Massachusetts&#8212;a.k.a. Ball Plant II&#8212;killing a few minutes before our scheduled tour. The public is prohibited from &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>My Favorite Course</title>
					<description><![CDATA[I read this feature regularly, So I&#8217;m excited to contribute not one but two of my favorite courses. I even have a theme: one course I play when I travel and the other course I play when I, well, leisure. On the travel side, it&#8217;s the Plantation Preserve Golf Course in Plantation, Florida. It was designed in part by Robert von Hagge, one of the creators of Doral&#8217;s Blue Monster. The course is breathtaking, and it&#8217;s completely surrounded by preserved wetlands, so &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>Rock Creek Cattle Company</title>
					<description><![CDATA[Deer Lodge, Montana (Private) Nearly lost amid the eighty thousand acres of property at Rock Creek Cattle Company is Tom Doak&#8217;s new prairie-links course. A prime selling point of this private golf and fishing club near Deer Lodge, Montana, the course works its way through evergreen-studded foothills and small natural bowls. &#8220;The contours were very linksy in character,&#8221; Doak notes. &#8220;We would have had to move practically no earth except that there are so many rocks just &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>Palouse Ridge Golf Club</title>
					<description><![CDATA[Pullman, Washington (Public) Flying over Washington&#8217;s rural southeastern corner, you might notice a swath of university campus alone in an ocean of wheat. Brand-new on Washington State University&#8217;s campus map is a John Harbottle&#8211;designed golf course with greens perched high and fairways that heave and tilt like turbulent seas. The university hired Harbottle to plow up a frowzy nine-holer and replace it with a challenging eighteen that would help catapult Cougar golf to &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>Four Mile Ranch Golf Club</title>
					<description><![CDATA[Ca&#241;on City, Colorado (Public) Roaming through a lunar landscape of juniper, pi&#241;on and white-shale hogbacks are eighteen holes Jim Engh has dared you to come and find. Fans of Engh&#8217;s work will note many of his trademark elements here, among them high-stakes green complexes and sharply angled doglegs. But nary a traditional bunker can be seen, just noses, hollows and humps. Not that the course is hazard-free: Errant shots will force you to play from the rugged native terrain &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>The Faldo Legacy Course at Roco Ki</title>
					<description><![CDATA[Punta Cana, Dominican Republic (Resort) Celebrated elsewhere in this issue ( &#8220;Behind a Design&#8221; and &#8220;The Player&#8217;s Paradise,&#8221; ), the new Nick Faldo course in the Dominican Republic required a midstream rerouting because the tricky island terrain had reacted unpredictably to construction tactics that would have worked perfectly well in most places. Faldo rolled with the punches, finding corridors through upland mangrove that would become his &#8220;Harry &#8230;]]></description>
