Say what you will about them but the tour of every hole at ROCK CREEK CATTLE via drone is absolutely killer.

What does it matter if the poor player can putt all the way from tee to green, provided that he has to zigzag so frequently that he takes six or seven putts to reach it?     --Alistair Mackenzie--

If you know the young man who is responsible for this video please pass along my invite to stay at my home for the Korn Ferry Tour Championship held at Victoria National. I believe he is an articulate young man and perhaps he can explain to me what is interesting about the destruction of private property and the violation of public space. I am certain that one day every young man in this video will be members of many of the finest private clubs in the country. I also believe that if they take the time to look back on this video they will regret their mistakes and do everything in their power to prevent their children or partners from doing the same.

As you can read in the above link it is illegal to fly a drone over the Golden Gate bridge and has been for some time.

Colin,


  That is a great video by Mr. Nicholas.
A wonderful four years of golf and travel, of friendships and education.
You deserve loads of credit for taking your program to the highest level.
That includes the quality of the golf, and the greatness of the golf courses you play,
but more importantly the education.

Collin what a great recruiting tool that is spontaneous and authentic.  The best recruiters are your players I know from being a former coach myself.  Plus it doesn't hurt to have Cypress, TOC, Bighorn and other exclusive clubs there.  Didn't realize anyone could fly drones over the Golden gate bridge. The kids have personalities and that came out which perhaps takes away any formal stuffy golfer at Yale machines.  Great video and a testament to your leadership there of how great their experience has been.  Well done.

Seriously? What do you think about purposely hitting balls into the Ocean or other natural waterways? How about climbing on ancient relics? Or even mocking Furry culture? Or living like you rent it? It's time to teach the future leaders of our country to stop filming themselves.

John,

I admire the tenacity on this one, but you're a bit behind the curve.  Big brother has been sending up satellites for decades now taking snaps of everything and everyone.  Meanwhile Google has been taking snaps of everyone's house and front yard the past 10 years or so.  This isn't exactly new ground here...

Just because your friend illegally flys his drone over a bridge...
