@LinksGems Couldn’t agree more, I feel like 18 at NGLA isn’t talked about enough.. also
Rye, hitting your second shot looking at the giant clubhouse window and the patio is very uncomfortable as a guest 😳

Simple question tonight: what’s your favorite closing hole?
The par-5 Home hole at National Golf Links checks all the boxes for me. A generous tee shot framed by real danger, followed by a gentle climb up the fairway, past the iconic Jarvis Hunt clubhouse and the patio where Southsides soon await, to a green perched on the edge of Peconic Bay, all while the sun sets in the distance, is the best way I can think of to end a round.

It’s been a tough week for the @GCSAA community. This week, GCSAA lost two past presidents and vital members of our industry. I’m heartened that their legacy — the building blocks that we all get to enjoy because of a life they lived and the service they gave — live on.

@DLFUSA And now I can do this in the winter instead of staying home, shoveling greens, and worrying about my annual bluegrass dying from ice encapsulation

Here it is:
I was given the choice between Lot B or ORVW 10 Year. I went with the one I prefer.

I just got a HUGE surprise phone call about a raffle win 😳 Context: I only put in two entries and I was literally on my way to the store when I got the call which made it even more surprising! It was also timely in another way, forcing me to put my $$ where my mouth is…

Golf is full of great nicknames for famous stretches of holes. Amen Corner, Hogan’s Alley, the Cliffs of Doom, the Green Mile, the Bear Trap, etc.
So how can it be that this iconic section (1/18/17 green) of The Old Course at St. Andrews doesn’t have a great nickname?
The Swilcan Passage? Old Tom’s Snicket? The Sacred Corridor?
We, as a golf world, are better than this.

@ToddS76 @golfcourses101 @kiawahresort I landed my ball about 3 foot left of where my caddie wanted.. I had an impossible 30 yard 2nd shot, of course ended up in the right side bunker because the ball doesn’t stop…

Is this the scariest par 3 on the planet? 👀
One last look at the iconic #17 at Kiawah Island’s Ocean Course.
Where is your tee shot ending up here?
