I agree with Nicklaus philosophy that hazards should be generally visible from the tee so that the player can make an intelligent club and shot choice. There shouldn't be any shocking surprises. I consider courses that are full of invisible hazards and blind tee shots to be tricked up and gimmicky... all that's missing is the windmill. They are the product of an unimaginative architect.... he should go back to designing putt-putt courses.

I just want to be able to play golf, and not always be dropping and adding penalty strokes.
I'm with that. I played a course on a Navy base that had a forced carry that you couldn't see anywhere until you were right up on it. Par 5. Tee and second shot was good....till I walked over the hill. It Had like 10 yards of land to walk around the water hazard. Picture on the score card wasn't anything like real. Man that made me mad.
