G Jones, You make the putt?  **edit** just read your post. Do you have a link to the hi-res version? |

If long hitting is the thing that causes the spectators to whistle through their teeth in wonderment, why not play tournaments up and down an expansive stadium?

This one has been my desktop picture for a while. I took it when I was at Pacific Grove with my two brothers (Pacific Grove is the municipal course next door to Pebble Beach).  |

I posted a few shots, but I used too large a file size and they didn't look great so I deleted the post. Here's two from Ballycastle while I resize the other shots. I took these in 2006 during the Bushmills Malt Causeway Coast Tournament. This is the 10th green looking back down on the links holes at Ballycastle.  Here is the approach to the 7th hole, which runs along the strand and can be seen in the above photo.  |

Here is my shot of the hole taken in June a couple of years back. Definitely not as nice as Mike's - which is among my favorites that have been posted.  |

Thanks to all for posting, it is great to see individual perspectives of so many courses that are mentioned in this fine forum. Tim Bert: Thanks for posting the pic of #6 at Pacific. It actually verifies that there IS a green somewhere up there. |

Boy, what it must feel like, after finding what might be a great sequence of four holes, to see this land and say, "well, what can I do from here?" and then come up with that solution. What an evening it must have been for the Doctor on the future front nine of that "downsland" |

Question for Gordon Jones - Great photo the course looks familiar maybe we can have a knock around there sometime?? Would it have been your favourite had you slid the return putt past the hole??

it was a 2 and half foot putt with a bit of break... and i knew if i missed it i would never be able to think of the hole again without being annoyed... so yeah, it was a good job i holed it! if I missed I probably would have zipped up the photo and never looked at it again...  |

I've been mostly unhappy with the results of my attempts at golf course photography, but here is one that I like. It is the approach to par 5 12th at the Phantom Horse Golf Club in Phoenix Arizona.  Tom |

Tony Some great photos there, but you haven't labelled them! The first is obviously Bass Rock (any one see the excellent BBC programme "Coast" last weekend with a feature on Bass Rock? Shame they didn't also feature the West Links!) The second I think I should know. The wall made me think of North Berwick but I can't place the green. The third is Muirfield? Is the fourth from a golf course? I can't see one on the photo The fifth is Turnberry (4th or 5th green?). I recall having a bit of a mare on that hole  No idea on picture six. I'm guessing that pictures 7 to 11 are Lahinch (as you told me you were going!) Twelve is Tom Doak's Renaissance Club at Archerfield. Thirteen I don't know. I've several photos of my own I should post. I've loads from Shiskine and Kingsbarns that I haven't even downloaded from my camera yet! |

When there is a good half light there is no course in the world that photographs better than the West Links. I, of course, don't have the ability, but I love the Pit.  |

Here's my favorite from the trip to St. Andrews in March 2007, a first visit to the New Course. This is the 6th green with "The Auld Gray Toon" in the background. The gorse in bloom is a wonderful sight, and the 6th green is a delight to negotiate. Great bowl in the front!  |
