The frank commentary of the world's finest golf courses....

[Jordan Wall]

YaBB God now.
 

Now, for the golf courses part.
I am pretty sure this is as good as it gets.

[Glenn Spencer]

Almost as pretty as Longaberger, Jordan. That picture is just not right. I think I would hang em up after playing there. Nothing could compare.

[Garland Bayley]

Congratulations,

You must be the youngest person to achieve such status.

[Tom Huckaby]

Interesting - and appropriate - that you'd post that picture, Jordan.  Believe it or not, there are wackos - er, I mean participants here - who call that hole no big deal, just a wedge, overrated.

Yep, it's true.

Thus the frank commentary of the world's finest golf courses...

ps - posting this close to 8am gives more fuel to the Jordan is Fake contingent.  Shouldn't you be in school?

Where's the run-up option on that hole?

Jordan,

Yes, I can personally attest to exactly how EXCITED Huck gets just standing on that tee!  In fact, I think someone took a picture of him literally bursting with anticipation.

Mike Cirba, you are a bad, bad man.

 

[Dan Kelly]

Whose picture is that, Jordan?

(Oh, and one more matter -- upon which I've resisted commenting all these years ... but now that someone has made it a thread title, I can't resist: Why is it THE frank commentary? Get rid of that THE!)

[cary lichtenstein]

How about some negative comments on this hole?

Huck, what am I going to do with you??
 
Yes, I was at first period with that post but we were all on the computers and I was bored.


Mike,

That was a good one.
 

[Matt MacIver]

Previously mentioned lack of ground game, over-placed bunkers and it looks like a long walk between holes -- bad routing.  

And the water's too blue, so that was probably photo-shopped.  

[Jordan Wall]

Dan,

That's a picture I found a long while ago and saved to my school computer profile.

The only thing I'll say about this picture is the long tee you see along the ocean in not from Alister Mackenzie.  It was added I believe in the 1950's.  The Mackenzie tee is barely seen in the shadows between the long tee and the clubhouse (up on the hill by the brown road).   I personally enjoy it more since you are looking down at the green and can see the hole much better.

Who is Frank?

Jordan  --

Thanks -- but that doesn't answer the question I asked.

I asked whose photograph it was. In other words: Who owns it?

I see now, from checking its Properties (http://www.joanndost.com/com/images/cypress/cpgc_H15_16_17.jpg), that it's Joann Dost's picture. It's her picture -- and her copyright.

I don't mean to pick on you, but I don't think we should be posting professional photographers' pictures here, without their permission.

Perhaps you could send her an e-mail (info@joanndost.com) and ask for her permission?

Dan

[Jordan Wall]

Dang.

Am doing right now Dan.

[Tony_Muldoon]

Congratulations Jordan I have always enjoyed your posts.

Great photo btw.  

[Jordan Wall]

ok, I googled and got a new photo from GD and will post the other one again when I get permission.

Jordan --

Who owns the new photo?

Why don't you post one of your own, in the meantime.

Dan

[Jordan Wall]

Dan,

I dont have to many pictures that are mine on the school computer but lemme get one from Flickr...

[Tom Huckaby]

Well that's just great, Jordan.  Change the picture, make comments about the first one seem stupid.

BUT.. well... believe it or not there are also some who find THIS HOLE to be not that big of a deal.  In fact a beloved expatriate American in Scotland was once heard to say "no big deal, driver to the right side, ho hum."

You sure can't please everyone.

[Jordan Wall]

Oh wow.

Sorry Tom.
 

[Tom Huckaby]

Oh wow.

Sorry Tom.
 

No hassles man, all in good fun.  I'm just being a smartass anyway.

But it is true that at least one wacko doesn't think much of that hole either....
