No, I mentioned it because the golf course in question is "built"
entirely inside the boundaries of an area designated as "State
Forest", which is intended for logging purposes, so it renders on OSM
as a light green patch entirely covered by trees. Don't know what will
happen if I then map tree rows, bunkers, water hazards & so on - guess
we'll have a small patch of blue with trees in it as well?
I think the area cannot be used for logging. There is a saw mill in the
Tumut NSW Australia area (Batlow IIRC?) operated by the Forestry
Commission, designated as a state forest .. yet it is correctly tagged
as land use industrial in OSM. I would think the same applies to the
golf course - map what is there, not necessarily the official
designation ... it could be out of date, what ever the case what is on
the ground should override any other source of information.

But doesn't the wiki say that landuse=forest is for managed forests,
intended for logging purposes (or similar wording - can't open it ATM
for some reason?), which this entire area is?
Apparently areas used for logging-related purposes are not to be mapped
in OSM .. there are no tags available for this land use.
We simply cannot map them.
