GD Old Mac Caption Wrong?
« on: April 04, 2010, 08:08:12 AM »
Am I correct that the caption in GD on the fantastic Old Mac arial photo is wrong? Says the photo looks at the "Alps" 16th but I believe it is the 14th with the 15th tees in the foreground. 16th would be diagonally off the bottom right corner of the page, correct?

Chris,

I would be happy to tell you for sure, but I haven't seen the photo yet.  Is this the May issue?

Yep. I walked the course in November so I am fairly certain it is wrong. I guess finding errors in publications is an old habit. In college a friend and I used to scan the StarTribune for errors just so we could call them and see the corrections the next day. :D

Chris,
You are right. It is an aerial picture looking south. You can see the 3rd hole over the dune, the 14th green at the bottom of the picture and two of the tees for the 15th. The error may have been made by assuming the expansive gorse at the bottom of the picture was the northern edge of the property, when it is the hillside to the right of #16.
