Calling all video duffers!  What's your favorite golf game for the Mac?  I'm
itching to play and would like to pick a good one.

Jack Nicklaus' Greatest Holes of Championship Golf is a blast.  It's a bit slow
on the Mac + & SE (well, OK, it's real slow...  At least between holes) but it
seems quite alright on the SE/30 and IIcx.  Mean 18 is fun, too, but it has
no provision for things like wind and up/downhill lies.  I found that after a
bit of practice, I can score consistently in the low 60s and high 50s on M18.
This may sound great, but it gets boring.  Jack's game is more challenging.  Oh
yeah!  It has random pin placement, too, so the holes are different every time.
