Golf courses are a type of landmark which appear completely different when viewed from the air. The spatial perspective that one gets in an aerial view of the golf course is one of the reasons why professional golfers are scouting out courses before tournaments to get a bird's eye perspective of the course. AirVuz is fortunate to host a wide variety of drone videos of golf courses around the world, from Pebble Beach to Scotland. Included in this collection are many of the top courses identified in the influential Golf Digest ranking of the USA's top 100 golf courses.
