Guess That USA Golf Hole_January 2014 Edition (Extra Holes! Number 26)

[Ronald Montesano]

Well...that didn't take long.

Here's #20

[Michael Felton]

Lake of Isles?

[Ronald Montesano]

Nope. It's a mid-atlantic course that, on this particular hole, could definitely use a frak-load of tree clearing (as evidenced by the mange on the green.)

[Jonathan Mallard]

#3 Stonehouse.

[Ronald Montesano]

Aye, laddie...#3 at Mike Strantz's Stonehouse it is.

Howzabout...

[Kevin Lynch]

Is that part of the future Pinehurst #9?  I think that's the long par 3 on the front at the Pit (#5?).  

If I recall the proposed routing, this part of the property is not going to be used.

[Ronald Montesano]

It is the par three four hole at The Pit (NLE)

Here is a bit on its glory days, with a shot from the rear of the green: http://www.sandhillsnc.com/the-pit-golf-links.html


Hole #22 is...





Whoops, nope, that's a pooping dog at Highland Links on Cape Cod...sorry. How about this one?

[Kevin Lynch]

I'll leave this one for others to name...

But it was the site of perhaps Eric Hoxsie's greatest hickory triumph.  After hitting his 8 iron to 6 feet, he then "validated" his shot as a non-fluke by then hitting Spade Mashie to 3 feet.  I think he knocked out Brian Finn & Chris DeNigris for the Closest to the Pin (twice).

Yes. I remember that hole well. Back 9 at Tot Hill Farm.  Can't remember which hole exactly.

Not only did Eric hit a brilliant shot with a hickory, but he and Kevin also allowed me to try their hickories for the first time on this hole. I am now working on my own hickory set, thanks to these guys and a few others.

Tot Hill Farm bangs the gong~


And away we go to hole #23 with this gentle beast:

#15 on Tot Hill (before the 1/2 mile drive to the 16th tee).

#23 must be the opening 18th hole at Oxymoron CC.

Haven't played there, but the backdrop (is that gorse?) seems Bandon-esque to me.

[Ronald Montesano]

Oxymoron GC is better known as Pacific Dunes. Nice call for a guy who hasn't been.

This one is pretty distant from Pacific Dunes, in multiple ways.

[Bill McKinley]

#16 at Oakland Hills South?

[Ronald Montesano]

Nope, but headed in the proper direction. It's a course in Ohio, not in Michigan.

[Ronald Montesano]

The hole in Reply #61 comes to us from Pete Dye's Avalon Lakes in Warren, Ohio.

Now, for something completely opposite Pete Dye...

[Matt Bielawa]

Blackwolf Run River #5

[Ronald Montesano]

Yeah, you got me. It was consecutive Pete Dye holes.

Here's number 26:

[Andy Hughes]

Ron, where is the tee for the Avalon Lake's picture? How long is the hole?

[Ronald Montesano]

HOLE IS 404 YARDS LONG

[Ronald Montesano]

Hole #26 is found at Nags Head golf club along N.C.'s Outer Banks.

Here is #27

[Ronald Montesano]

Reply #69 bears the image of a hole at Sanctuary Ridge, a pretty hilly joint near Orlando (is it Clermont?).


Here is #27
