You can start where ever you like...
17 to 3 would be a hole for sure.
Don is much more familiar with cross country golf there - he's done it a bunch
I was always partial to starting from the 12th tee at dusk and seeing how far I could get.
the view from 12 tee to the 3rd green is one of the coolest I've seen on a golf course - it looks like one big rumpled gigantic hole.

Thank you Jim I guess I should have.

Sam I'd be careful if I were you... especially since I've asked you out there before.
As you've learned getting an invitation and playing are 2 separate big hurdles.

I wish I could have a huge friggen GCA outting there - east vs. west.
It would be a most fun weekend for sure.
The South Texas BBQ would be crazy.
Pete would come brew beer ahead of time too...

Cheers

How about a North/South outing?

What is a north/south?
Me vs. you?

I said I wish... it is not going to happen any time soon.
Cheers
Thinking of Bob, Rihc, Bill, George, Neil, Dr. Childs, & Tiger.

I think we could round up more than just you and I.

Sam,

It wouldn't be an issue finding the personnel.  It would be an issue allowing twenty architecture nutcases in your backyard. And make no mistake, the golf course is someone's backyard. :-)

... it's pretty much all short grass.

You can hit it wherever you feel is the best line for that day's pin, wind, etc.



Don't confuse desire to hit the ball to the spot for the best line of the day with the ability to hit the ball where you want to ...

All that short grass means you can tell your playing partners after a tee shot on a somewhat different direction: "Yes, that is where I was aiming ..."
"... and I liked the guy ..."

Ah yes, but that characteristic is why I think of Wolf Point as "The St Andrews of America."

Hitting the ball where I'd like it to go is always a problem.........

I can't believe you would consider east vs. west on a course in Texas. The obvious teams are Texas vs. the World. You don't mess with Texas.  ;)

Dude, what a crappy idea for a thread.

Where is Scott to give a few good clues...    ::)

I was playing a tournament on a hidden gem Ross course w/another GCA-er.  That, and I haven't posted in quite a while.


How about:

This course is where you go to play a money match against Sir Bob Huntley and always leave w/your wallet lighter.

Do I see a horseshoe imprint on this course?

She turned me into a newt, so therefore, I think she's a witch.



Art Hills?

That gave me a chuckle....

Same here.

It'd be the Secession Cup....Texas vs ROW
