"The truth about golf courses has a slightly different expression for every golfer. Which of them, one might ask, is without the most definitive convictions concerning the merits or deficiencies of the links he plays over? Freedom of criticism is one of the last privileges he is likely to forgo."

Not the best of photos, but the ferry ride builds anticipation...

“One natural hazard, however, which is more
or less of a nuisance, is water. Water hazards
absolutely prohibit the recovery shot, perhaps
the best shot in the game.” —William Flynn, golf

SIMPLE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION:

If you saw Mark Saltzman or Michael Whitaker in 2011, you knew you were close to somewhere special.   ;D



However, keep the pictures coming, they are great.

Dismal River..........



Is there a connection between Dismal River and Notre Dame?  I am already dying just to see the place, but as an ND grad this makes me even more interested!

Sorry if this is a dumb question...

Brian,

Not a dumb question. Chris Johnston's son is currently attending Notre Dame, so he put out the sign, which is on the trail to the first tee of the Nicklaus course.

Looking fwd to seeing you there in June!
