Best Golf Course Logo

Met Golfer magazine's choice in their best of the best (several years ago) was Garden City Golf Club. I have always loved that logo. I also believe that the logos of Winged Foot, Quaker Ridge and Baltusrol belong on any ten best list.

Walton Heath (see the thread below).

How can anyone omit Bethpage logo.. can't you just see yourself as the little pot-belly kid? pretty cool indeed.

quite frankly the best logo of any club has to be Winged Foot,very subtle and everybody knows its WFGC!

gmcjr,

What is the logo of the NYAC ?

A big yes to Fishers Island. The old Country Club squirrel was pretty neat too.

Just remembered one that always got a great response: Salem GC

I love the two geometric hummingbirds of Castle Pines Golf Club. I also like the Cherry Hills logo. Finally, Spanish Oaks in Austin Texas is a very nice understated logo. None give any hint of the significance or orgin except to those in the know. The worst I have seen to date is Flint Hill National in Wichita. Might as well install a friggin neon sign on every golf shirt sold in the pro shop.

The worst logo I've seen is from The Links at Twin Towers.
The logo sported the two massive nuclear reactor cooling towers that apparently dominate the course's background.
Fortunately, they've changed their name to something else.

bringing back this oldie cause I had my shirt from the Dunes Club on today: the "D" is a bent golf club, very cool

I also really like my hat from Five Farms: anything with a pre-1900 date is automatically great, I'd think...

Wow...this thread is old! Good point, Paul-"Old" is oftentimes very, very good.

Preferably, any logo that doesn't have the club's name on it. If it doesn't have a golf club, or golf balls, or any reference to golf, even better. In my closet, my Burning Tree shirt is a favorite for that reason.

Wayne Freeman and I thought The Creek's was interesting (Piping Plover) although it has a golf club. Fitting to the club.

My opinion is the best are the most understated. As I get older I find I like logoed items less and less.

Without reading the thread... I like Schuylkill CC's and Philly Cricket's.

Doug likes their flags

I wonder if Pat's opinion of the Sand Hills LOGO has changed?

« **Reply #138 on:** July 14, 2005, 08:21:32 AM »

Merion's logo has always been the best for me

« **Reply #139 on:** July 14, 2005, 08:29:04 AM »

I think it all starts and ends with the R&A logo.

« **Reply #140 on:** July 14, 2005, 09:05:51 AM »

I have to give The Emperor his due as the Friars Head logo is my favorite with Merion a close second. Castle Pines is also a pretty cool logo.

The humping 'Hummies' at Castle Pines gets my vote.

for some reason I really want to see the Stonewall cow logo....

Redanman,

The logo of the Redtail Hawk is not that of the once ultra exclusive RedTail Golf Course near St. Thomas, Ontario. It does look very close to Red Tail Landing Golf Club's logo in Edmonton, AB but alas it is not exactly the same. If I could finally figure out how to post pictures I would show you the difference.

now that we are in the midst of summer re-run threads here are some of my faves. I omitted any Indian themed logos - but if had to pick my fave from that genre it would have to be philly cricket club

Merion - undisputed champion imho -the logo that all others should aspire to be

fishers island
chicago golf club - their motto "far and sure" earns bonus points
myopia hunt club
walton heath
lahinch - unlike the logo this course is hardly a goat track
the country club - squirrel logo
yale -"biting bulldog"
sleepy hollow - headless horseman
indian creek
maidstone - whale logo
creek club
ngla
atlantic city - the bell and the date works just fine for me
philly country club - the weren't "horsing" around when they designed their logo

bumping up as it came up in the recent logo thread

« **Reply #147 on:** September 30, 2005, 11:45:47 PM »

I believe the bird of prey logo is East Hampton Golf Club (C&C) or South Fork CC in Amagansett, NY
