I’m looking to recruit some talented shapers for several projects over the next couple of years…trying to get a feel for who’s out there, available and wants to have some fun building cool golf on awesome properties with some great architects. Retweets appreciated!

Before we welcome 2024 and what should be a very exciting year tonight, here’s a look back at a quietly great 2023 of master planning and shaping at some amazing NorCal locales. Cheers to all my friends in golf! hochsteindesign.com/blog/2023/12/1…

@WaverleyGreens Married with kids vs single with a girlfriend….simple explanation

These two people are living in very different worlds.

The wild turkeys are out on the 18th green at Pasatiempo! 🦃 📺 Golf Channel and @peacock

@golfsuper1992 Takes me 10 minutes to put 10 gallons in my boat 🤬…and it still spills gas

Name a dumber, more difficult thing designed for our “safety” than these stupid safety cans 😡

@tullfescue Amazing

Thanks to Lee for sharing some of his finds in UK publications that detailed some of MacKenzies work. @birdiejp

In August 2020 the CZU Fire burned all around my golf course destroying over 900 homes and my golf course. Today after rebuilding the front 9 we are open for business. It has been a long journey and I am so happy to welcome golfers back.

Getting close to opening day! #czufire #bouldercreek

@theturfyoda @tacobell They lost me when they dropped the enchirito

Hey @tacobell, who was the genius that decided getting rid of the #mexicanpizza was a good idea?! #alltimefail #cmonman

@KurtisWolford How will the election directly impact a globally traded commodity? Just curious how you see this playing out with a different administration.

Enough of this BS. Come election time please make the right decision.

@ChloeAllyn Gunners!

What football team do you support? ⚽️ 🔴💯 I’m all about Arsenal!!

I’m sorry…..I know it’s supposed to be a great course but the greens at Pasatiempo look stupid as hell

Pasatiempo is 6600 yards and only one player is under par. Lengthening courses was never the answer. Firmness and interesting greens is the ultimate equalizer.

What’s great about this, is yes, it highlights our industry, but more specifically it highlights the greenkeepers who deserve the recognition most of all.

@KurtisWolford 2018 GMC 2500HD SLT 6.6L Diesel 4x4. 20 MPG cruising on the freeway. Pulling my toy hauler on the weekends 10-12 MPG. This is my second GMC 2500. Zero issues!!!

Ok turf Twitter. I need some help. I’m unfortunately truck shopping. Let’s hear Ford vs Chevy vs Dodge. What motor and what’s your mpg please. Looking for real world assessments. I’ve bees a Ford guy but have had rotten luck with my 2013 f150. Let’s hear it

@jayblasi Very cool!

I’ve been in love with the 9th at Cypress long before I ever saw it in person. Father / son birdies on 9 yesterday is something I’ll cherish forever. #golf #golfdesign
