Ian:

Fun thread--sorry but I just noticed it---and a lot of interesting old stuff (photos and drawings) that're great to look at. These fellows on here really are good at identifying the odd this and the that! I don't think that's me though in the first photo although I guess it could be. I do sort of recall a lime green hat like that. I think I got it as a special deal at the local WaWa convenience store for buying a carton or two of Winstons! I think it was semi-water proof which looks to be appropriate for that day.

I would like to thank Ben Dewar for this hangover.

Tom,

I think you got the hat with your cigarettes at the gas station where we met with Wayne before heading to HVCC.
The weather was tough on that second day, we all wore rain clothes.

Sean and Tommy,

The hole is the current 17th at Cherry Hill, was the 8th in the origional plan (reversed nines nothing serious). The club will bring back most of what you see on the plan. Cherry Hill is the only Travis course that I know as having all 18 origional greens.

Here is the current 15th at LA CC. One interesting note, that green was designed with a central bunker like 6 at Riviera, but was replaced with the large knoll instead.

Ian:

Actually I think that lime green hat is yours so I must get it back to you. I got your IM message so give me your mailing address--the flask is a Tillinghast thing--remember? The flask is a must for conceptual creativity ala A.W. and you said you wanted one. But I made you promise that you'd use it remember? I sent one to Paul Cowley, and I have one for you and Gil Hanse. But if I run into any of you out on a site and that flask isn't in your back pocket I'm gonna take it back.

Use that flask liberally like Tillie did and you won't believe the amazing stuff you'll create, particularly greens and bunkering!

Ian,
Of all of the holes I have trouble getting pictures of when I have been at LACC its #15. I keep forgetting! Why? Because, I love that last stretch of holes there a lot, and I think I have pissed so many people off with them having to wait for me on #11! a GREAT downhill Redan (Nader in this case) for those who don't think Redan's are of a downhill nature.

And, whenever in Buffalo......:)

Based on what I've learned on this site, my guess is that the modern bunker depicted in #8 has to have been designed by Roger Rulewich.
