[Tim Martin]

Fishers-Hello!

[Ronald Montesano]

Tim, that's a sound, not an ocean.

Paul, does it surprise you that a corporate entity tosses corporate advertisers on a list?  Only question is, Tiger's when?-to-be-built course, Punta Brava.

Ron-It didn`t occur to me that the distinction between the sound and open ocean was in play. Thanks.

Ron,

"Tim, that's a sound, not an ocean."

By that logic the Old Course can't be considered as it is against the North SEA and NOT an ocean...

[Patrick_Mucci]

Seminole

[Ronald Montesano]

Tim...I forgot my smiley face...wait, I never use them because I find them cutesy...I should have punctuated my "sound" comment with a hearty har-har...I don't suspect that there is any logic beyond $$$$$ to any golf chanel (it's now a perfume) list.

Felipe Joven (Philip Young), see above.

Ron,

I just figured anyopne living in Buffalo at this time of the year must not have too good of a sense of humor... the Bills and all...

[Ronald Montesano]

Philip,

I resent "and all."  "And all" is pretty good in Buffalo.

[Phil_the_Author]

 ... Then again, I could have said the Sabres...

For a guy that has nicknamed himself "Tricks" it`s hard to believe that you would consider a smiley face cutesy. Just sayin.

[Mac Plumart]

Is Lahinch on the ocean?  Or is it on a sound?

[Greg Tallman]

Tim, that's a sound, not an ocean.

This project is just about ready to move forward believe it or not.

yea, i didnt think even the Golf CHannel would reach that level of chutzpah

[Sven Nilsen]

Is Lahinch on the ocean?  Or is it on a sound?

Mac,

With the amount of surfing going on at the beach in Lahinch, it would be hard to argue its not on the ocean.  It gets my vote over Old Head and Portmarnock.

Pebble Beach is actually on Carmel Bay. 

[Terry Lavin]

I say we just change the title of this thread to "fwiNw"...

[Matt_Ward]

Where is Pete Dye's Teeth of the Dog ?

One other thing -- for breath of the view nothing can beat Old Head -- now, if one factors into the equation the quality / lack thereof of the actual architecture -- well, that another story.

[Wayne Freeman]

      Their list doesn't make a lot of sense to me. 

                     I'll take a stab at these:                 Cypress Point

Old Head better than Cabo del Sol--- In a word - No.

[Matt_Ward]

Greg:

My inclusion of Old Head was based on sheer beauty of the course next to the outstanding views provided.

I never said the architecture of Old Head is bulletproof -- just the views provided.

[Wayne Freeman]

Greg-  I have not played Cabo del Sol, but  from what I've read and seen it certainly could be on the list.  .  I'm in agreement with Matt- Old Head has unreal beauty and astounding vistas..   the property is amazing.
