Patrick - It's certainly the best first tee - but the best first hole is 20-miles away at Doonbeg! Loved the old photos of Miss Pim & Co in action.
Talking about murder mysteries, I'd like to murder the committee who bulldozed the former 3rd hole into oblivion BEFORE the members could vote on the matter. I knew John Burke well but never discussed with him the ins and outs of his captaincy and what changes he made, or didn't make. With Burke as my guide, I was on a mission to find the perfect swing.
