Hey Guys,

 I was wondering if you all have a favorite golf course picture set as your desktop photo, and if you would like to share it?

 If not a desktop picture, what about your personal fav. photo that either you or your friend took?

 Thanks,

  Pat

My current background photo is of me teeing off The Buck at Cruden Bay last July 3. It was our first of 12 rounds in Scotland.

And the first decent tee shot I hit that day. (In this size you can just barely see the ball just above and to the right of the clubhead)

Tom, not clear on why you picked that picture?  ;)

My last golf one.



My current one.  Not golf related...but more enjoyable.

I actually have my screensaver scroll through all my photos.  It's nice to look at when I have some time.

Pat,

The second picture by Brian Sleeman is of the first hole at Crystal Downs looking over the ninth green.

I love that photo and the one of Cape Breton.

Until this thread I had one of the 18th at Oakmont.

Mine may be the most obscure; it is the 14th at Hillandale, a muni in Durham, NC.  

It's home, and when I look at it, years fall away, summer comes, and life is simple.

Mine is the first at Sand Hills, since it photographically captured one of my absolute favorite, jaw-dropping, excited moments in golf.  Every other hole just built on it, but the first was something that I'll never forget.
