Jim,

Is 9 Brooklawn Country Club? 

I didn't recognize it immediately. There was a huge tree on the right, front side of the green when I played there a few years back.  An updated aerial image shows the tree has been removed. 

What year was this photo?

Is 12 Brackenridge before the reroute?

[Marc Haring]

I've cheated on 7. In the UK there are only 2 Punchbowl Lanes and only one overlooks a golf course.  I've never played the course so won't give it away.

plenty of rocks there
3.Something in St Augustine

Yes, Nice hazard back then.

Using clues isn't 'cheating'.

[Marc Haring]

Thanks for the quiz Jim. I love them when they're posted.

Thanks Marc.
I've seen Betchworth spelled Beechworth, Beckworth, etc. ??

Are those "Eleanor's Teeth" on #4 at Apawamis?

The photo I posted is too early for that.

Today's version

Jim Hoak,

Ever since you posted the reference to "Eleanor's Teeth" I've been mulling over which of the "looks" I prefer, and which I'd rather play.

I prefer the original "Rocket J. Squirrel" over the "Eleanor Roosevelt" on both counts. 

[Jim_Kennedy]

I just got off the phone with Mark Chalfant and while jawing   about this-and-that we remembered another set of "Eleanor's Teeth".

The teeth at Apawamis show up in a 1947 aerial. These are a bit west of the Apawamis set and were added to this course sometime after 1939 - know it?  :
