Re: Bayonet & Black Horse Golf Course

You missed Poppy Hills, on an earlier rotation of the Bing Crosby Pro-Am.

Perhaps showing your age - what position did Wes Covington play?

Do the Greens "dry out"

Might be my age or mind - but it seems to me the green speed gets faster through the game. I'm always changing the speeds before my rounds, using all 3 Challenging Speeds. I'll play the first 4 or 5 holes and will get used to the setting - next thing every putt is running 5 feet or so longer than th...

Re: LIV

From Golf Digest today: A source close to LIV is surprised by all the roadblocks they’ve encountered. Jay Monahan doesn’t answer their letters, the majors aren’t giving them credentials, vendors who rent tents and furniture for tournaments won’t fill their orders. The way they see it, they’ve worked...

Re: LIV

Jim Thanks for the cbssports link/story. I guess I knew the PGA was a "non-profit," but the article does a good job explaining all the pitfalls they face. I can't imagine the LIV is planning on being non-profit, this will be interesting to see the shakeout. A second "try and fail"...

I tried to view the first event, but couldn't figure how to access it. I'm as interested in seeing the course as I am in the golf itself. I assu...

Re: Tee Shot Alignment

Was curious, so I checked - Augusta #15 showed 7 right Sciotto #8 showed 1 left

Both holes are "kinda" doglegs, with the set line (on mine) being a very aggressive aim target. As long as I hit it 310 and high 1'll be fine :bookh:

Re: Wonderful Golf Courses

Thanks for the file size explanations -
just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on access to the Halfway Shack or the Cart Girl or something good.
