I'll take "Fairways and Greens" for $200, Alex.
I've played golf courses that were little more than a tee box, fairway, green, and hole in the ground. They were awful golf courses, but they were golf courses nonetheless.
I think a fairway landing area is an integral part of the game (assuming you are considering 2 and 3 shot holes for your course). Without a pleasant area to land the ball there really is no point in aiming, nor is there punishment for failing to execute a satisfactory tee shot. You're just hitting balls into a field at that point. Similarly, a putting surface is a necessity.
