Escalante Golf purchased Hawks Ridge and immediately moved to have Tripp Davis begin on a master plan. The native Okie has been spending a lot of time in Georgia recently…I’m going to go out on a limb and say improvements can be made to this hole.

@BobHarig @Markleonhard1 It’s amazing how Americans see this simply through the lens of how it affects golf in their country. It’s a big world out there & no one in Australia, for example,wants to grow rough on courses never designed to have long green grass down the sides of fairways. Britain the same

Btw.. I think the rollback is one of the dumbest ideas going. Not sure i understand the logic of the best player in the world that week shooting 12 under to win the Masters? If Augusta wants the winning score closer to par , grow the rough !!!
Bob Harig@BobHarig

@Markleonhard1 The tour is leaning toward not abiding by the rollback. The governing bodies are committed to implementing it. If that happens then it is very likely

@JLuGolfweek @BPBlackMetal That's the best advice out there. So many unhappy people who feel the need to lash out. Plus, at least you know people are reading your stuff.

I get approximately three of these a year. People who post "this is news to me" for all the stuff that wasn't covered by golf publications, then you get to post "old news." Ol' Ohioan me was posting the Marcella and Shivwits Resort news before yoUte.

Our Director of Golf and my dear close friend A.J. drops off some goodies from not only the Masters, but some custom made chop sticks from his and his wife’s trip to Japan earlier this year. Proceeds to go out and make an ACE on Lower 3 tonight afterwards! #goodkarma

After an unfortunate chemical incident which rendered all the greens at WP9 unalive, @KeithRhebb and I find ourselves back on site for the remodel’s 10 year anniversary - almost to the day. Rest assured, the new greens will be better than ever, with a full bunker reno to boot.

Wyndhurst Manor, a Stiles and Van Kleek design in the Berkshires, has just had bunker and green rebuilds done, the latter to soften slopes that don’t align to current speeds. I haven’t seen a name affiliated with the project but I’m curious if you know.

@BPBlackMetal I find the desire for unreasonable green speeds at the expense of original greens contouring to be offensive.

Teed it up twice at the wonderful new Darmor Club. Cool, laid-back vibe, all about golf. Fun Hal Sutton-designed layout, inspired by Macdonald-Raynor, flows with the land, and presents plenty of options and challenges. Deceptive greens with lots of sneaky movement. @TwiggsLeo

I had a conversation with the owner and he said he was inspired by the holes in GB&I more so than any specific designer. That he wanted to replicate holes when possible and 17 of the 18 were inspired from his travels. Only 6, was not, that was a hole Hal saw with his eyes and wanted to build it. Hence its name. I love Darmor, so a bit biased. If it was closer to my house I would have put pen to paper back in 2024.

@Lloyd_Cole AI suggested a good lesser-known song is "Black Night" – Charles Brown.

I’m sure must be some great minor blues in 6/8 out there, but I haven’t heard one in a long time. Only tired cliches.

If any of you fine folks come play Yale GC this summer, I’m happy to host at New Haven cc down the road. The recent resto/reno from Brian Schneider and our new superstar super has made our Willie park jr course even better than it was already. Come check it out! Photos @bhGolfphoto
