Time for Guess That Golf Hole: 5th contest done (also won by Steve Green!)
« on: December 24, 2013, 04:49:57 PM »
This is my first attempt of an idea that has been rattling around in my head.  I grew up loving game shows.  And I'm old enough to kinda remember Concentration.

So, the game here is to guess the hole on the golf course.  For the first installment, I'll reveal a handful of squares for the first clues.  Along with indicating this is from a private course East of the Mississippi River.   :)



And you get one attempt at the answer!  So do you wait it out, or guess when you are somewhat certain?  

I'll remove a few more squares tomorrow on Xmas day.

Any comments are welcome.

Happy Xmas Eve!

Yale? (figured I'll be too busy tomorrow, so I am taking a shot at first place/ grand prize right now!)

Basing my guess on what appears to be rock ledge in one of the squares...could be anywhere though.

Do the blue squares on top represent sky or water? ;)

USA it is, however.   :)

Lookng at the colours of the leaves and sky, my guess is that it s a photo of this hole taken at 11:10am on the morning on the 4th April.

Okay, new game.

Making up rules as we go along here:

1.  You can ask one question and one question only to aid your discovery.

2.  You must guess the course and the hole.

3.  You get only one guess!

This is from a course not very close to Hidden Creek.  Still in the USA.  It is not a par 3.  Picture taken a few years ago, early in the year (March).

Well, I really have no idea what hole, but it looks like World Woods...

So, since it's the most famous hole on property, I'll go with PB hole 4?

Here is the picture of the most recently completed hole in the contest, the 4th at World Woods Pine Barrens:



Next in the contest coming soon, this one perhaps a bit more challenging.   ;)
