#5 Dooley is a winner, but my favorite was Matt Cohn's #4 at Spyglass. Would like to put that one on my wall probably because it is one of my favorite holes. Kyle's too. I took that same picture with my phone without near the quality.
I love golf, the fightin irish, and beautiful women depending on the season and availability.

All of the course photos are strong and picking 1 took some thought.  I'd put up any in my house.
The trouble with modern equipment and distance—and I don't see anyone pointing this out—is that it robs from the player's experience. - Mickey Wright

Courses: 1. Kyle Henderson

People and Traditions: 4. Jonathan Webb

I'm honored to be selected as a finalist and looking through all of the pictures has been a heck of a lot of fun. I love Kyle's picture because it's the only picture I've seen of that hole at Clear Creek that truly captures the beauty and quality of that golf hole. My own picture of that hole, despite being at an ideal time of day, didn't even come close to the quality of Mr. Henderson's.

They say a picture speaks a thousand words. Jonathan's picture seems to do that pretty well, there's so much care taken in sculpting that bunker. It's those little details that make me love GCA.

Terrific submissions guys. I'm already looking forward to what the next year brings us.

Cognitive dissonance.

The more I look at Wayne's shot, the more I like it.

Sorry, I hate to change my vote, but that is the winner.

"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."

Jeez, it's a tough crowd when an image like this:



Doesn't even make the cut.

Connor's image is fantastic - it looks like it should be on the cover of a coffee table book. 

Joe Stansell's for the other one.

I love the way Kyle's photo conveys tranquillity.

And the way Sheehy's has alcohol in it.

They are my votes.

I actually had a hard time with the 2nd group, which is not what I expected. But, how cool is it to see 2 guys shaping bunker surrounds by hand.

Thanks Sven!
