10th hole at Dismal River?
Live Jupiter, Fl, was  4 handicap, played top 100 US, top 75 World. Great memories, no longer play, 4 back surgeries. I don't miss a lot of things about golf, life is simpler with out it. I miss my 60 degree wedge shots, don't miss nasty weather, icing, back spasms. Last course I played was Augusta

It reminded me a little bit of the 7th hole...but its been a few years since I"ve seen it.  I've since looked at the aerials and realized its not it.

Nice responses, all. Bruce is correct, it is the sort of NLE Bloody Point Club. I've been following the caretaker's posts on FB and it looks as though it may make a comeback in the near future. I certainly hope so.

It is a b...h to get there, especially from Santa Barbara. They used to charge $8 plus tax for a miniature bottle of Irish Whiskey that you can buy in the store for $1 and a 20% gratuity was added for every item you removed from the mini bar. Ouch!!!!!!
