Five Farms - A joy to behold

Boy - Watching the tournament from Five Farms on HD today.  What a golf course!

To me, it looks like one of Tillie's best - agree?

That course has been teasing me for a while.  We go to Baltimore every year and I have yet to find my way on it.  What a siren.

I get it, you are mad at the world because you are an adult caddie and few people take you seriously.

Excellent spellers usually lack any vision or common sense.

I know plenty of courses that are in the red, and they are killing it.

It really is great.  Better than Bethpage and almost as good as San Francisco for Tilly's best IMO.  It is fantastic!

For me it is a toss-up between 5 Farms and Fenway as to which is more under-appreciated. It is a fantastic golf course. The greens are amazingly subtle for ones with as much break, turns and undulations in them. The course is laid out over, around, across and through rolling terrain in such a natural way...

It is as Dan said, a JOY to behold and, even more so, play...

    BCC... MUST be the most underated golf course in America. Enjoyed every step. Should even be considered among the three or four best from AWT along with BB, SFGC and WFW.

One of Tilly's best and vastly underrated.  Deserves more merit.  Best course in the DC/MD area.

I wish I would have seen FF in HD Dan...

...but I did see The Old Course in HD finally on TGC (Dunhill Links).  Wow.  It simply looks spectacular.  And I believe there will be more coverage early this morning as the tourney is finishing today.

It sure is a treat to look at such a jewel of a golf course.  How long of a commitment does the club have to host this championship?

We have the tournament for 1 more year ;D. I am looking forward to 2011. Granted we make some money off the event, but I like playing Five Farms in the fall more than any other season and in 2011 we will be able to play when we want. This past weekend was perfect weather wise here in the mid-atlantic and it would have been nice to play the East. It would have been even better to play it with the rough cut as well ;).
