Very good stuff on an excellent course. But any true New Haven insider knows that Modern is better than Sallys or Pepes  ;D

Modern was my post-little league game stop for a number of years.  Generally not a victory celebration, as my Bank of New Haven sponsored team posted back to back 1 and 17 seasons, but, when you were getting Modern afterwards, the game didn't really matter.

Just to stay on topic, the coach of that team was Richard Levin, current president of Yale, which has a pretty darn good golf course.

That my friend is complete and utter b---sh-t. See how many lines are forming in front of Modern and then get back to me. Modern`s ovens are too hot of late with the once 5 star crust reduced to soup. I know they have their loyalists but it is Double A compared to Pepe`s or Sally`s which is "The Show" . ;D

Was that a video or a slide show? How can we better present a golf course, with a collection of stills or by mounting a camera on top of a golf cart and driving?

Slideshow with cryptic commentary.
The trouble with modern equipment and distance—and I don't see anyone pointing this out—is that it robs from the player's experience. - Mickey Wright

Abate is just down the street, is very underrated, and they always have room. It is the Southampton GC sitting next to the brand names of Shinnecock and National. Gluten free pizza is very good and good for you.

Mike-Head into Pepe`s and ask for Gluten free pizza. Within 10 seconds a guy named Carmine is dispatched to come out and kick your ass. ;D When I go in there worrying about what is healthy for me doesn`t pop into my head.

As you are one of the few people that will understand this, I typically eat there with Dustin so....

Honestly, I have never been to Pepe's. More than 3 people in line and I can't take it....
