@david_perell Played all 5 the year Sheep Ranch opened. Old Mac was our fave. Trails was indeed the surprise as usually all golfers rate it the worst of the 5. Walked 18, 36, 36 and it was great. Also saw every weather condition possible which made the experience that much better.

To all the golfers in the house, you have to visit Bandon Dunes. In five days, I walked more than 100,000 steps and played nine rounds of golf. Some thoughts on the experience: - Years ago, a friend told me that the best music festivals are the hardest ones to get to because only the die-hards will make the trek. So it is with golf resorts. Bandon is tough to get to, which makes it a place for people who love golf. If you don’t love golf, don’t go. But it’s paradise to those who do. - What makes Bandon extraordinary isn’t the quality of its single best course. There are plenty of resorts where the best course is better, like Pebble Beach and Whistling Straits. What’s unique about Bandon is that there are five outstanding courses, two par-3 courses, and an 18-hole putting course — all within a five minute drive of each other. Each course has its own personality. Such sense and abundant variety makes Bandon elite. - Save time for the Par 3 courses. I recommend playing them in the afternoon, after your first 18-hole round, if you don’t feel like playing 36 that day. Bring beers. Make bets. Talk trash. - Pack for every weather condition: We got pouring rain, 35 mph winds, a dense marine layer, and shorts and T-Shirt sunshine, all within a four day span. - One of Bandon’s delights is the way it’s designed for all-out golfers. For example, there’s a golf shoe dryer in every room to prevent blisters for people who are playing 36 holes (sometimes in the rain). - Bandon made a conscious decision to prioritize golf at all costs, such as building the clubhouse away from the coastline so the best beach views would come from the golf course instead of restaurants and hotel rooms. There’s no infinity pool and no luxury spa. It’s about golf, golf, and golf. - If I have one complaint about Bandon, it’s the speed of dinner service. The entrees took more than an hour to arrive every night (in fairness, the demand spikes are a huge logistical challenge because everybody wants to eat right after the sun goes down). - Bandon has the best golf merchandise game I know, outside of The Masters. Don’t buy everything you need at the first course though. Every course has their own logo, and also their own strengths / weaknesses on the merch front. - Go with a group. I was in a group of 24 guys. That’s too many. 8-12 is ideal. Big enough that you can keep playing with new people, but small enough to get to know everybody. - If you do a buddies scramble, do it at Sheep’s Ranch, a course without bunkers where you can tee it high and let it fly on just about every hole. - If there’s a course to get a caddie, it’s Old MacDonald. It’s a study in optimal illusions. You’ll need help navigating all the blind shots and topsy-turvy green complexes that play tricks on your depth perception. Without a caddie, your eyes will betray you and you’ll find yourself frustrated. - The quality of your caddie will majorly influence your experience. If you don’t like yours, ask for a new one. If you do like yours, work with them for the entirely of your stay. I had about four different caddies during my time there. Two were good. One was terrible. One was just fine. And I made sure to get the phone numbers of the good ones so I can work with the in the future. - The pace of play is quick: When you get to the first tee, the marshall will put a GPS tracker on your golf bag right before you tee off to track your position on the course. And if you’re behind by a few minutes, you bet somebody will tell you to pick up the pace. - Bandon Trails was the surprise highlight because it’s the course that looks the least like the other courses on the property because it’s tree-lined and built away from the water. But it’s a solid Coore-Crenshaw design where just about every hole is noteworthy. If you ask the caddies which course they like best, most of them will give the nod to Trails.

@LouStagner It's simple. I'm an 8 handicap which means when I play my best, I should shoot 8 stokes over par. It's NOT an average of your last 10 or 20 scores.

This glorious son of a bitch walked a tightrope between the Twin Towers in 1974. He made it across eight times in 45 minutes and then got arrested for disorderly conduct. His name is Philippe Petit, he’s still alive today.

@rzbck @Daniel_Rapaport For the most part, yes. Fairways are big enough to hit. Shanks will find the fescue and that's the only trouble.

@MikeVassallo13 Think of it this way, the defense is giving up the run in exchange for 2 outs. The defense could take it away with a throw home, which is why an RBI is not credited.

⚾️ Rulebook states that you do NOT get an RBI on a grounded into double play. This has been the case for years. But should you? 🤔 Note: Brewers win, 5-4, tonight. Deciding run scored on a GIDP.

The incredible tee shot on hole #6 at Sheep Ranch. 240 carry over the chasm at the aiming point. Where are you aiming and hitting?
