Biarritz c. 1905

Since I went with Biarritz in 1895, gotta ask why 1905? That's about when CBM was there and saw his inspiration, right?

The course I grew up on before they planted a single tree.   How I wish you guys could have played it.  It was a GCA darling.

Bogey

Bogey,

    Maybe a GCA play day at the course to raise money for tree removal?  Do they know what they have done and just don't have the money to correct tree issues?
