Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
I’m very thankful for the little community of golfers that we’ve built here, and for all that you guys have done to support it. And I’m thankful for the many of you that I’ve met on or off the course these last several years, and for the opportunities I’ll have to meet more of you in the future.
Here’s to health and happiness for you and your families and best wishes for a wonderful holiday.

The golf broadcast game is showing signs of improvement. PGA Tour launching an immersive VR headset situation…but only for Apple Vision Pro. Debuting this week with #7 at Pebble Beach.

@jedmoller Hilarious! I didn't know Snoop was into golf course architecture! He's spot on!

Everyone at @DPWorldTour Q-school in Italy is on 59 (or 55) watch.

The Walker Cup - 2040, 2044, 2048
To Be Determined …
I hope you enjoyed this series on the Walker Cup venues in the United States as much as I enjoyed putting it together.
Now that we’ve looked at all the U.S. courses where the cup has been and will be contested, which do you want to see host its first Walker Cup next?
My choices:
1. Sleepy Hollow*
2. Fishers Island
3. Friar’s Head
4. Pinehurst No. 2
What are your choices? Give me at least one of the following: classic course, modern course, public course. I’ll pick the best and send a prize.

@SHistorians how much credit does he really deserve for B.P. Black!?

I have spent the last week studying up on AW Tillinghast for my series of podcasts for the @talkingolf history.
Zero idea how many shows it will take to do this extraordinary man justice. There are just so many layers to him, including his maligned work during the Depression.

@acaseofthegolf1 didn't they take that privilege away a year or two ago?

NEWS — Big J @ForePlayPod Gamble Sands is adding a new 18-hole course & one of my favorites, David McLay-Kidd, is designing. 2025 opening. DMK also designed Gamble Sands & their par-3 course, QuickSands. The course at Gamble is in contention for my favorite course ever.

@Cedric_Walter maybe everyone in FBCL can pool our money and buy the team, then we can manage a real team instead of our make-believe fantasy world!?

She’s gained a lot of weight over the years, but a new diet 🪓 has things moving in the right direction.

RT @sam_golf: There's one topic in golf which has been trending for a little while now. So, this song probably needs little introduction – it's called "Growing the Game".
