Great pics Mark! The real question is were all of those courses that you played in 2012? That would make it even more impressive than it already is.
2016 Highlights:  Streamsong Blue (3/17); Streamsong Red (3/17); Charles River Club (5/16); The Country Club - Brookline (5/17); Myopia Hunt Club (5/17); Fishers Island Club (5/18); Aronomink GC (10/16); Pine Valley GC (10/17); Somerset Hills CC (10/18)

Not Concession.

I didn't include any Canadian courses.  Didn't think many would be able to get them.

For #1... I was thinking Timuquana, but that's wrong...Gulf Stream?

I can't segregate on the LI course, the best guess I can make is ...Engineer's?

Had no memory of the hole, but worked it out via Google aeriels ::) ;D  #6 (although I knew there was a 2 or 20 stuck in the middle somewhere)
Good memory VK

It was the faintest of memories, almost pure guess...I felt it was the front, a little into the round and it wasn't 7, which is a drivable four that I remember someone in the group making a huge number.

We're talking 1989 or 90 or therabouts...

cheers

It seems like these were stumbling blocks for the group... here's the answers


1. A Ross in Florida - Sara Bay CC (as guessed by Jeff Warne) - Hole 18



19. A Nicklaus in Florida - The Concession - Hole 3 (as guessed by Andy Troeger)



22. Come on, really?  It's on Long Island - Engineers - Hole 6 (as guessed by Vinnie Kmetz)



27. A Fazio in Florida - Ritz Carlton Members Club Sarasota - Hole 6



38. Another Fazio in Florida - Champions Club at Summerfield - Hole 3

To be fair, that picture looks nothing like the mid-summer Engineers that I've played. I remember that hole being much more open on the right. Is it an optical illusion because the shot is taken from the right side of the fairway?
