Working at a golf course in Bermuda? Makes me think of "Caddyshack." Are they out there on the course setting IED's for the American players?

I've golfed at Castle Harbor and St. George.... both great courses. At Castle Harbor I left the pro shop and I found myself standing in the parking lot searching for the first tee (no signs)..... Finally I saw this little shack on the side of the parking lot which turned out to be the tee. Once there I had to search for the first green.... which ended up being on the other side of a lower parking lot and a valley from hell that looked like it was below sea level but the green itself was above me on a hill...<g> I started out like I usually do, nice and relaxed and had a solid drive (for me back then) of @200 yrds. As I watched my ball, I figured it would land at least half way up the hill but to my amazement it just kept falling into the valley from hell, bumped off the side of the hill and rolled down to the bottom. My second shot only need to go about 100 yards but the problem was it was almost straight up! 3 shots later I managed to get on the green....<gg> Talk about lost balls,,,,I ran out on the 9th hole.. fortunately there was a dude selling used balls so I bought a couple hundred so I could finish 18...lol St. George was a beautiful course, more conventional than CH. Lots of ocean holes..... you can literally hear the golf balls hitting the rocks when the waves break lol.....
