Neil Regan,

I have to echo TEPaul's comments on those photographs.  No, I'll go beyond.  Those are as close to pornography for golfers as any photos I've ever seen.  

Steve,

My wife actually lets me put Neil's pornography on the home office walls !



Patrick,

I actually had the opportunity to play with Larry Lambrecht (Emerald Gems book on Irish courses) last summer, and he says it is really a function of the light, mainly towards the end of the day, and getting up high to get the right angles.

N,

I used to think of that as one of my all time great tap-in pars, and it only because of this insane website that I see I actually got a 6 for leaving in the pin.  ;)

What else are you holding on to?

Mike Sweeney,

No doubt revealing my ignorance here, but where were those two pictures taken--the one on the wall of your home office and the one showing your tap in par?

Steve Wilson,

The bottom picture looks to be the 8th at Pebble Beach.

My eyes aren't too good, but the top one could be the 3rd at Pacific Dunes.

The office picture is on the back nine at Pacific Grove.
