The list is incomplete and inchoate without the inclusion of............Foulpointe.

Perfectly brilliant.
I get it, you are mad at the world because you are an adult caddie and few people take you seriously.

Excellent spellers usually lack any vision or common sense.

I know plenty of courses that are in the red, and they are killing it.

JC,

There are outings at Sebonack and Maidstone this May that you can sign up for.  That's a good start.

The Pazin lead list threads seem to have faded so I thought I'd bring them back.  While most people offered a top 10, I thought 11 was better because, well, it is one more higher.

So, after much deliberation, here are the top 11 courses that I am seeking access to this year (any help in gaining access to the listed courses is much appreciated):

You think big.  I like that.

Me, I'm just trying to play Stonebridge Ranch Dye course one more time.

A wonderful list, JC.  My favourite line/sentiment is this:

"Either way, with a rumored $650k initiation fee, this course had to crack the top 11."

Perfect, profound, prophetic, preposterous, purile, pedantic, prescient, and palaver all at once.




I read it and thought he should have written, "this course had to crack my top 10 list." Especially since he had it at 11.

Eric, you must be kidding.

It's the only non-swamp, non-Doak 0 course in FL. Any access whore whose worth a damn has played there! ;) :D

JC-

I have a good friend in Columbus who is a member at The Golf Club.  He invites me out each summer and allows me to bring two guests.  I would be happy to include you in the group this year if you're interested.  Please IM me and we can talk dates.

Best-

Maidstone is easy:  Numbers 1 and 18 aren't that exciting so skip them. The others are way out of sight from the clubhouse and nobody gets to that part of Long Island until after Memorial Day so late afternoon after the grounds crew goes home is prime time for a leisurely round.  The only thing you will miss are the bikini clad ladies at the beach club on a summer afternoon.

I'd figure out a way to get Wolf Point on the list.   And I know the guy behind the guy behind the guy at one of the magic eleven...The Eleven is also an insider Grateful Dead song.  There must be a DaVinci code thing going on here.  Either that or you have a secret evening ritual of bong hit/cross dress/watch director's cut of Spinal Tap at full volume...

When you say cross dress, do you mean wear UM gear?

JC - If you're lucky enough to get an invite back to the Kingsley Club, look me up.  I have connections at the bastion of exclusivity in northern Michigan that you unwisely left off your list:  Traverse City Golf & Country Club.

I'm currently trying to arrange a GCA event at Augusta National in March.

No one's returning my email inquiries, but stay tuned!

JC,

Can you give us a little insight on why you chose Sebonack over Sand Hills?  For those that have played both, feel free to chime in.

While I appreciate the offer, George, my brother married in to the exclusive TCGCC society so your assistance isn't needed.
