Bret,


What is your forecaddie doing on the green with you standing back there?

John,


After I chunked it out of the fairway bunker, I had to hit a short pitch to the green.  He was fixing the ball mark, while I drove the cart around.

UMMMM ....forecaddying?
Surely John you're not one that has your forecaddy line you up and engages you in endless  Bonesism conversations before you can pull the trigger?

The only thing I ever ask of any caddy is to limit the times I need to bend over. Bending over is the most difficult aspect left in my outstanding life.

Too bad we cannot see these photos in all of their glorious sharpness and detail.
Virtually every one of them looks soft and fuzzy, and I know they are not.
Is there a solution?
A place or method to repost?

I am seeing the photos quite clearly, not soft and fuzzy at all.

David, the issue is what they should look like. I'm betting that compared with the original images, the resolution leaves much to be desired. For reference,  kindly follow this link to my same image on Flickr.

The difference is like tasting chocolate. You don't know what you're missing until you sample it.


There are some darned nice photos posted here. Wouldn't you like to see the higher resolution versions of those, as well?


How 'bout it, fellow shooters?

Hard to pick just one after a pretty amazing year of golf for me, and certainly none of my photographs can compete with the quality of most of the GCAer's who post here frequently.  But here is my submission, the oft-captured and majestic Royal County Down.  I had a wonderful day here with two friends, a morning match with modern clubs, followed by lunch and hickories in the afternoon...

Matt,  Your picture of # 10 at Shinnecock is nice but it was not taken in 2015.  There are no more trees on the left side of your picture, right side of the fairway.
