..Well, Dr. Bill (if I'm interpreting his acronyms correctly) has nailed most of these, but for what it's worth...

#1---Here is a wide view of the clubhouse and the marvelous swath of green/tee height cut encompassing the #9 green, #10 tee and #18 green.  The course was done by one of the GCA faves, and is under-visited and under-studied by us, in general...  Likely very much on-the-radar if located in a metro Northeast area..


#2--The venerable Garden City GC.  I assume that this pond is NOT a source of controversy at the club :D

#3--Indeed, the Myopia Hunt Club.  Anyone who wishes to see this in person may do so on 10/10/2006.  Don't miss it sometime during your lifetime as a GCA-student...

#4--Mr. Murratt knows this view well...The porch is one of the more pleasant places to enjoy a crisp fall afternoon one could ever want...


#5--The Meadow Club--love the way this reflects the area around the club..

#6--At Mr. Morrison's request, the "Valley" of Huntingdon Valley

#7--As a nod to Bryon Nelson, this is Inverness Golf Club

#8--I think several of you know this one, but since no one has "spoiled" it...Ross course, with several previous and (I think) on-going revisions.  Brutal #1 hole and one of the more severe false-fronts on #11 one could hope to handle.  This is a pan-back of the previous shot (#9)


#9--Some folks may prefer this view from the club, when properly populated on a warm summer's afternoon...


#10--This pan-back of (roughly) the same angle should help out...


#11--Dr. Bill has it, but here is (after #2) perhaps the other best-known hole on the course..


#12--This hole is iconic, both for the club and the "Society", topical because of some of the sniping today on GCA on one thread...


#13--Not necessary!

Hope this helps, and that this has been fun...

So, Robert has slotted in a few more, and I think only #1 remains unaccounted for...

#4--The Orchards (South Hadley, MA--2 pix), with the second shot a view down the 9th hole from the porch in October

#5--The Meadow Club, from behind the 9th green

#6--Huntingdon Valley, from the 6th tee of the C Nine, IIRC...

#7--Inverness Club, from the 10th fairway, looking over the cool 18th greensite...

#8--Plainfield CC (2 pix), from beside the 9th green and from further down the 9th fairway

#9--the Maidstone Club (2 pix), from the 1st fairway, and looking over the oceanside Beach Club

#9--Jeld-Wen!!!

Tut, tut, my boy!  Your helicopter-landing, yacht-mooring and Beach Club privileges are hereby revoked!

Darn.  I was getting spoiled by it anyways....

Scott -
Jeld Wen??? Was that a joke? We are not amused.  ;D

Have never been to TMC and had never seen pics of the clubhouse.

From my one time at The Reserve Vineyards outside Portland
(home of the Senior Major Jeld-Wen Tradition) in 2000, that
pic reminded me a lot of the clubhouse there.  Looking it over
more, I knew there weren't any tees in that spot in relation
to TRV's clubhouse, not to mentions the vines....

I also knew that Peter is from the NW w/a club affiliation not
far from TRV (shown in his #2 thread), so a pic not far away wasn't a stretch....
