I stumbled across this article regarding Links Club being built while looking for photos.

Great thanks Tyler. Not sure why that thread never came up in my search.  ;D

Bitter than sweet
It's a bittersweet surrender..."

Big drivers and hot balls are the product of golf course design that rewards the hit one far then hit one high strategy.  Shinny showed everyone how to take care of this whole technology dilemma. - Pat Brockwell, 6/24/04

Sorry to  bring up an old thread, I've been reading about Links Club recently. Does anyone have photos they could post? Especially of the reverse redan?


On mobile so I cannot post a photo but this link here will bring you to a picture of the reverse redan.

Wow! I came back from the dead. This was a good discussion from back in the Treehouse Days. Anything Macdonald (and Bahto) is interesting in my opinion.


To be 100% honest, I came to this website back in 2001 in hopes I could get access to private golf clubs, but found out it is so much more than that. Lotta great people on here throughout the years, and the wealth of knowledge is immense.


Of course, I realized that access is overrated and would be revealed in time. There are other sites for that!

This is an old aerial that is floating out there on the web. I think you make out the Fortress green and the Biarritz. Someone with a more sophisticated eye than me can also probably figure out where the Redan is located.
