New pump station arrived in November from MCI. TX to MI uncovered in a snowstorm. $250,000 purchase covered in road salt. In addition the pump shafts were too long so it couldn’t even be installed. Not what I had in mind. #highpointegc #MCIFlotronix #pumpstations #migcsa #gcsaa

If you have a little time, this one is worth a watch! Favorite line is when Tom Doak tells Rod Trump, “welcome to the golf business” when discussing 7 day work weeks. @kcsuptdfl is pure class.

@tooeytoogood Long live persimmon. With all today’s advanced technology, nothing feels as good as hitting one of these “on the screws”.

Sent my dads 4wood that he used for the bulk of his career to Ross Baker for a refurbish. Looks fantastic, such a shame we don’t use clubs this attractive anymore. Ross has a skill that is fast becoming unique!

A beautiful sight! Pumps running on auto, heads running from Rainbird central computer. A big step closer to dropping seed next week! #highpointegolfclub

15 green getting updated. The par 3 will have 2 sets of tees approaching from different angles. The original routing, from left of 14 green and a new angle, from behind 14. #highpointegolfclub

From the site of the new #highpointegc Clubhouse. The property in the background will be new holes 1-6. Some terrific rolling contours that pictures don't capture.

@HochsteinDesign Thanks Brett. I've been following your exploits on here too. Very happy you've done so well. Having you, Brian Slawnick, Mark Thawley and Jeff Mingay involved with the start of Kingsley made it an even more special experience.

@kcsuptdfl Wow that’s a big but exciting change! Big shoes to fill behind you, no doubt. Thank you for your tutelage all those years ago. I use those days out at Kingsley as a benchmark for what I know is possible in turf, and in turn, design. Even more excited now to see High Pointe 2.0

Thank you all for your kind words. It's been a 4 week whirlwind since my change. Owner Rod Trump and Tom Doak are resurrecting High Pointe, Tom's first design, as a private national Club. Using holes 10-15 of the original routing, with 12 new holes. Construction starts in April.

@SKMQU @CC_CastlePines We've had this happen to the flagstick on our 14th green 3 times in the last 18 months. I always pictured them jus rubbing up against it. Never thought it would be a standing attack! Answers a lot of questions. Great video!!

As I prepare to head off to day 1 of the big Member/Guest event, I remind myself the odds a 12-cap shoots net 10 under is typically ~84,300 to 1. Today it will happen at least 3 times. #LotsOfMiraclesToday

@Planet_Golf @capewickham "I’ve always said that Cape Wickham and King Island were both bigger, and more important, than I was." Yet here you are exclaiming your importance and flinging dirt publicly to create controversy. I know the business can be cutthroat, but this is a whole new level.
