I just figured out #12, the background gave it away.  When I looked closer I could see all the ski runs on that mountain.  ;)

Its Tuhaye by Mark O Meara...don't know which hole it is though.

If #30 is an Engh, I'll guess True North, since its one of the few I haven't seen and matches the terrain a bit.  Interesting I've played Pradera and Promontory Dye and couldn't place those photos.

Thanks, John.  Not so today, though.  High of 48, rain on and off and sustained wind of 40MPH, with gusts up to 60! 

Needless to say it was not a scorecard and pencil type day.

I'd also guess that photo 22 is from the awesome Devil's Paintbrush in Caledon, Ontario.  I've never played it so I can't identify the hole but the little clubhouse looks familiar from when I stopped in after playing its sister course, the Devil's Pulpit.

Matt,

Yep and yep.  I'm also fairly certain you've played #s 31 and 37.

Ha - I'll get there...

#37 is your home club, Bigwin Island and the par five 3rd hole...will check #31 next...

I *think* that photo 31 is the par three 2nd at Scarboro G&CC.  That hole is tougher than it looks in the photo!

Matt, you got it.  I played Scarboro for the first time earlier in the week and came away very impressed.  Those short 4s at 7, 15 and 16 are a blast to play.

No doubt - I think it's among the more underrated courses in Canada and it's a Tilly so it's definitely worth seeking out.  Great bunker work by Hanse and Andrew.

There have to be more than a couple more Canadian courses here - photo #7 is killing me...looks very familiar but I can't place it...

Hey Mark...is #4 Ko'olau Golf Club on Oahu?  I just can't determine exactly which hole it is...it's been almost 11 years since I played there.

Andy, 30 is True North, the12th hole (a really good short par 4).


Mark - I'm thinking #30 is the 11th at True North.  I'm disappointed I didn't get that one - I spent some time in that water.

From GCA.com lurker David Greene:

Number 4 is the fourth hole at Four Seasons Nevis.  Can't tell you how often I pushed my ball right into that lake.  Trade winds move over Nevis Peak from left to right, come barrelling down the hill and everything blows right.  Just great with my slice!  Also about the best place to see the local green monkeys on the course.
