Pictures at Royal Oak

I was invited to play at a course called Royal Oak in Gunma, Japan. Course was incredibly beautiful set in the mountain side. Here's some pictures:






The interesting thing about this golf course, you're not allowed to drive the golf carts. They are all programmed to follow the cartpaths. That's why in some of the pictures, you see tire tracks in the course. Its kind of like Disneyland's go carts. It follows a magnetized metal beam implanted in the ground that a sensor in the cart follows. You carry around a remote and the cart moves when you want it to.

Wow--the Royal Oak is beautiful. That photo of the tree is so beautiful--it looks like a fake! Hope you are really enjoying every second of this!
