18 various course pics...can you name them all?

[Brian Cenci]

Again, because I found out recently how to post pics on GCA I thought I'd post another 18 pictures from my vast library of photos.  These are pictures from all over the country (well two from outside the U.S.) at places most haven't been but you may recognize.  A few get talked about quite a bit on this site.  I felt it unecessary to post pictures of The Ocean Course, Bandon, Whistling Straits, etc. because we've all seen plenty of those.  Because I'm a Michigander and winter golf to me is a 3-day January trip to Tennessee or North Carolina the dormant grasses may throw a few people off. 

A few hints before you start:
* Only 2 of them are featured in the "Courses by Country" section
* 2 of them are from outside the U.S. 
* 2 different pairs are from the same state
* Only Nicklaus & Fazio each have 2 courses shown.  All else are from different architects.


If someone can get all 18 without any help I'd be surely impressed.  Enjoy!

OK, I'll take a few guesses:
18 and 4 look like RTJ Trail courses. 16=Bulls Bay. 1=Wolf Creek. 7 is 3 Mile Island Golf and Country Club.

[Phil McDade]

Is #4 the home course of one John Kavanaugh?

[Jason Topp]

#12 looks exactly like #9 at the Harvester but the buildings are not in the right places.

#12 is Harvester

Phil,
     You are correct, Victorial National.  Picture is taken from the clubhouse looking over at #9 green.

You've got #1 & #16 correct but #18 and #4 are not RTJ Trail courses.  #4 was correctly identified as Victoria National.  #7 is not 3-Mile Island...it's a course that is pretty highly regarded...I love the look of the hole with the smoke stacks in the background too.

[SPDB]

Think #6 is Desert Mountain (Renegade?)

[BVince]

Picture #10 is #9 at Kinloch Golf Club

[Ed Oden]

#7 is not 3-Mile Island...it's a course that is pretty highly regarded...I love the look of the hole with the smoke stacks in the background too.

Pete Dye GC?

Correct!

[Brian Cenci]

It is Desert Mountain...unless I'm wrong (which I could because its been 2 years since I played all the courses out there) it is the Geronimo course

[Michael Dugger]

15 is Old Works, methinks.

[Scott_Burroughs]

#18 is #18 at Heritage GC in the town that I live, Wake Forest, NC.

#13 has got to be Engh, but it doesn't match any hole at Sanctuary.  Lakota?  Pradera?

Its Redlands Mesa #11... a fun hole actually!

[Greg Tallman]

#2 - Glade Springs?

[Brian Cenci]

[Greg Tallman]

Pic 8 is Sewickley Heights #10

[henrye]

17 looks like the White Witch.

[Brian Cenci]

17 looks like the White Witch.

Nope....you're getting warmer as the course shown is in the Carribean

[Scott_Burroughs]

#14:  hole #11 at Circling Raven (Worley, ID)

[Ed Oden]

#9 is the 7th hole at Yeamans Hall.

[henrye]

17 looks like the White Witch.

Nope....you're getting warmer as the course shown is in the Carribean

OK, 5 looks like St. Kitts.  Could 17 be Nevis?

[Brian Cenci]

Scott and Ed...both correct

Henry,
      You've got the 5th (St. Kitts) but 17 is not Nevis....I don't think too many people have played it since its private / $400+ to play.  Not that it is a good course, just a good location.  Located on island in Caribbean famous for their rum.
