Kyle:
You're going to work at Mountain Lake? Good deal. You will obviously run into my good buddy Ned Young (from GMGC) who lives there in the winter and is the Green Chairman of Mountain Lake.
Yep, BrianS put the squarish features into ML in his recent restoration. He basically did the same at Fox Chapel.
The way it was told to me by a couple of members of ML was that Brian, who can be incredibly hilarious spoke to the membership about their options with their course.
I guess the membership expected Brian to give them some super-detailed and sophisticated power point presentation and talk or something but that's not Brian's style.
So Brian gets up in front of the membership and says;
"You people are playing on a complete dog track right now (knowing Brian maybe he actually said they were playing on a complete piece of shit course right now
and that got somehow translated into a dog track). But underneath this dog track is the bones of a great golf course. So you people have a simple choice here. 1. You can continue to play on a complete dog track for the rest of your lives or, 2. You can hire me and I will reexpose the great bones of this place and give you a great golf course again. The choice is yours."
And Brian sits down to the total astonishment of the members of ML.
I love it.
Now, however, any additional architectural work or advice or whatever that needs to be done at ML will likely be done under the good offices of Ron Prichard---even if that may mean, under some form of odd or peculiar reality---me.
