Extremely special one today - Fishers Island Club
#11 in U.S ; #15 in World
I mean, what isn’t there to say about this place. Many Raynor or CB courses I’ve played take awhile to get into the template holes so many want to see.
Not here.
That front 9 hits you like a bulldozer with #2 Redan, #3 Knoll, #4 Punchbowl (+ Alps) , #5 Biarritz, etc… I honestly wasn’t prepared to hit such a high that early in the round.
I’ve played quite a few of his designs and no place seriously comes close in landscape he was gifted to work with.
Does Sleepy have a better set of par 3s? Yes. Did he have to work harder to create what he did at Shoreacres? Also yes. Does Fishers have a lackluster set of par 5s (if we don’t count #8 Road as one)? Sure.
All of that at the end of the day doesn’t matter because this to me without a question is my favorite Raynor… scratch that… favorite golf course ever that I’ve been so privileged to play. Even with winds that started blowing up to 50mph on the back 9.
I’ll be thinking about this on for a long time.
Can we #nuke the fuck out of drinking games?? Why the fuck do I have to think so hard and be told when to drink. Can’t we just hang out like real friends do?
