The Bright Golf Guru question of the week: what’s the difference between a Link course and the Bright golf course?

A links course is traditionally built on sandy coastal terrain featuring natural sand dunes, firm and fast fairways, and a distinct lack of trees, while at Bright, too many trees, no bunkers, and in winter, hardly any roll whatsoever. Where would you prefer to play?
