as the course is much tighter on the back nine.

only on new courses. Once a course has been in play for a period of time the approach to the back nine tends to widen. The bunkers in particular have a tendency to expand.

Further addenda:

A.- In addition, it is highly recommended to use rain gear on public courses AT ALL TIMES, as the weather is treacherous in such courses, never knowing what to expect.

B.- While not necessarily standard practice, or advised, some course owners as they age, they re-furbish top bunkers by refilling liners with gelatinous substance as base.

C.- As course develops into maturity, electronic "green prompters" are known to do wonders for the course, giving them unexpected new vigor, resulting in an even longer and more enjoyable play, for all participants, not to mention the benefit of "new life" for the course owner.
