Biloxi-area golf in pictures: Shell Landing in Gautier, Mississippi

Shell Landing Golf Club in Gautier, Miss., is one of the top-tier golf courses in the Biloxi area, a Davis Love III work that incorporates large, contoured greens - averaging about 12,000-square feet - with arguably more undulation than any other greens around.

It is a visually appealing course, with scads of marsh and only a few homes to distract from the scenery.

The fairways have excellent movement to them, and there are quite a few trees, but mostly around the perimeter of the course, so that a nice, airy feel results.

Shell Landing, though it sits south of both Interstate-10 as well as U.S. Highway 90, was one of the Biloxi-area golf courses least affected by Hurricane Katrina, mainly because its elevation is a little higher than the surrounding areas.

Water is in play on eight of the holes and Love used the 72 bunkers on the course well.
