Crowdsourcing Photos - Confidential Guide vol 4
« on: March 19, 2025, 07:53:09 PM »
Hello all:


It's been a few years, but I am finally working on the last volume of The Confidential Guide, which will cover Continental Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.  The target is to be in print for the summer of 2026.


Since I haven't been to nearly as many courses in the region as some of my co-authors, I am putting out the call now to anyone who may have a few good photos to share for the book.  Anyone who contributes a photo that we use will receive free copies as compensation, and the ability to buy additional copies of this or other volumes at a 50% discount.


We also have yet to decide on the course that will go on the cover . . . we are looking for a great scene that will show up well IN PORTRAIT MODE [which is hard for some people to visualize].  If your photo is selected for the cover, we will commission a painting of it, and the photographer will receive the painting in compensation!


Please send any and all submissions to confguidegolf@gmail.com


Please limit yourself to 4-5 submissions to start with.  If we like your work, we may inquire about more.  Photos of lesser-known courses are preferred!

Excited to read about the golf of Germany, France and others in continental Europe when this arrives.


I am headed to Sweden and Denmark in late July. I'll try to send over some stuff to that email after I go.

Are there pics of any particular courses or regions that you need more than others?

Wish I could help but unfortunately my photo library of Africa is limited. Either way, really excited for #4!
