Heck of a six-some (and more) teeing it up in this month's Golf Course Architecture journal. Lots of interesting and informative reading.

Busy day, but I had time to read Mark's article on Devereux Emmet:

Nice article by Mark on Emmet. Still underrated in my opinion based on so much quality work.

Thanks for posting Jim. I am on the list for Mark's soon to be published book on Emmet.

The wonderful photo of the Meadow Brook Hunt Club that Mark used in his article has a unique "aerial" surprise in it, and I've never seen one anywhere else.


Can you find it?

Yes...  :)  ... the shading of the green above it - a double plateau?


I wonder if any of the ODGs ever took to the air to survey their work?
