Nope.  I didn't get to MI last year.  I see the similarity in the landforms though.

#12 is 11 at Karsten Creek. There are a couple others from that part of the world that I recognize, but I'll give others a shot at them.

and #21 is 12 at The Honors I believe?  Great hole!

#7 - is that taken from the Bridgeport-Port Jeff ferry or the Fisher's Ferry?

How did you know McArthur?

#16 is not Bond Head.  I do see the similarity in bunker styles, though.

#29 looks a lot like #10 at Flint Hills National, but there are some pretty significant differences from my photo from 2008 so I'm not 100% sure. All that stuff to the right of the green wasn't there then.

Last guess(es); I want to keep a perfect batting average:

Is #10 - 1 NGLA?

Jeff, good eye on Pinecrest.  I thought of posting hole 5, which I really liked, but I didn't think anyone would get it.

Of course, the other guesses are correct.
