"....Golf architecture designed to deceive the player defeats its own ends. At best it fools only the players new to the course.

Another lot of greens seeded to Google's Gorgeous Grass Goulash. Better try Mulligan's Marvelous Mixture....."

from "Meditations of a Peripatetic Golfer" in The Bulletin of the United States Golf Association, Oct.16, 1922, v. 2 n. 10, p. 300.



Might there be a transition from no-rules mulligan stew (and parties) to ~no-rules mulligan golf?

(Could we read more of the context of the 1919 passage on baseball vs. cricket?)
