To read an interesting article on the renovation of a links course on Long Island go to www.mgagolf.org, click on the metgolfer online magazine and read the article "A Links Once More."  Unfortunately, the online version leaves out some  photos but the article is all there.

Blasbe, picked up MGA golfer before walking into our green committee meeting last night and was blown away by the pictures of the course.  Looks like you are well on your way to reclaiming what must have been a special golf course at one time.  Congratulations on what must have been a lot of hard work and patience, it looks like it was well worth it.

Blasbe1,

I agree with grandwazo.

I had played the course on a few occassions prior to the work.  I had always felt that the indiscriminate tree plantings had hurt the design.  Based on the photos and the article it would seem as if a tremendous improvement has been made.

I'm anxious to play the golf course next year.

blasbe,

Things look wonderful. I think I will take you up on the invitation you threw at me the day we played HC.  ;D
I'll be hopefully making a LI golf trip this spring.

It is an excellent article and it has put Sewane on a short list of places I'd like to visit next year.

For those outside the MET section, the publication is still well worth investing to have sent to your home.
