I was going to be pretty impressed if this issue was in print already, considering I just finished my story for them on Monday.  I'll guess the print version will be a little behind schedule.  :)

The newest issue of The Met Golfer, an article about the Orange / West Hills Country Club focuses on its famous bridge: http://www.metgolferdigital.com/i/638421-feb-mar-2016/77


I stumbled upon the new issue while looking at the "Bridges" thread.
