Morons Not Allowed

Maybe: Morons Included 

I like Golf's Finest

[Bill McKinley]

Absolutely love the idea here Ran. Can't wait to see some of these articles and hopefully add some of my own.

As for some of the suggestions for what the section will be called, I like Best of Golf and Why we Golf.

Morons Not Allowed

Mike,

That would disqualify 90+ % of those on the site

Obviously, the Judge thinks it's a "L" of an idea.

Oops, I thought we were naming the Judge's golf blog!  You can thank me for the titles in July,  Terry.

[Steve Lang]

   I'd suggest "Tastes of Golf"


while I like soul and spirit of golf,  they're too loaded

" best of " is too pretentious,fine for golf digest and golf week covers.. not GolfCLubAtlas

what ever happened to grabbing the old AOTD pics and pruning the many course photo threads for the narrative prose challenged???

Good thinking Ran. A fresh idea.

How about;
The Lure of Golf.
Celebrating Golf.
Golf and Life.

Cheers Colin

If golf needs friends and most people currently are outside of the bubble, perhaps 'Best of Golf' isn't so bad. It's strength is that it's simple and therefore inclusive whilst also requiring people to question conventional wisdom which teaches them that what they see on tour is the best.

Great though the courses are in 'Courses By Country' perhaps you could add in little joys such as Sean's reviews. Many of those courses would seem more accessible to ordinary golfers.

Blog is called "I'll be the judge of that!" 

[Dan Kelly]

"Best of Golf" is, in fact, Links Magazine's tagline.

"Golf's Best" is not.

Four words, but...

The Game We Love

BTW: Don Draper and Peggy Olson are hard at work on this project. They have plenty of free time these days.

[George Pazin]

Another vote for "Our Game". I favor Terry's "Life, Links, Lessons" as well.

Beard puller nominations:

It's About The Walk...

Golfgeist

Elysian Field Reports

Shivas has my vote "Singin' the Praises..." indeed, just excellent, no contest. God I'm slow ....why didn't I think of that!

In true gravity,

Colin

Another vote for "Our Game" -- but will Ken Burns sue for plagiarism?

How about Golf Satori

[Mike Tanner]

I nominate Friends and Fairways.

[cary lichtenstein]

I like the idea. We are all arch guys but the OT Thread has it's place and is of interest to us diehards as we are all fans of the entire game, not just the arch.

[jim_lewis]

Borrowed from Paul Harvey........"the rest of the story"

[Bill_McBride]

Is "Why We Love Golf" too many letters?   I know it's too many words but maybe not too many letters. 

[Tim Gavrich]

I think the section's name needs to be 100% in line with its purpose. That purpose seems twofold to me:

1. Provide a little bit of an outlet for members of this board a little beyond the confines of golf course architecture.
2. Provide a way for golfers who may not be quite as obsessed as we are to go beneath the surface to see what other great aspects of golf they may have overlooked.

Is this a pretty fair short description?

That being the case, I think overly abstract/clever names might work against the project of the new section of the site. I'd go with something very simple, like "Golf's Greatness" or, if there's concern that "Best of Golf" is too close to LINKS Mag's "The Best of Golf," just do "Golf's Best." I would respectfully caution against going overboard on the name, if we want to attract new, less (currently, anyway) beard-pulling attention.

Can't wait to see this develop.

Shivas,
Do not waver, do not be deterred, no vacillation!

"Singin' the Praises" was a brilliant thought, a flash of genius! One of these rare occasions when I know intuitively that the right choice has been made. As you so rightly point out the phrase itself did not drip off Michael Murphy's pen in the first instance. It is a phrase used often in my circles (mainly by me mind!) but nonetheless it is a well-worn, pithy expression and not obscure at all. It may be a "….too obscure a GITK reference…" but that is only to the uninitiated. Singin' the praises goes on all the time in this world ….. look I  am singing your praises regarding your moment of truth here ….it is almost an "Ode or Accolade" by gum! I sing the praises of Golf Club Atlas at every opportunity, I sing the praises of gowf, and, admittedly, I shamelessly sing the praises of Golf in The Kingdom. This singing of praises is widespread.

It would be with unalloyed delight and joy that I would see this pearl of a phrase adorning the GCA menu bar so let us not have any backsliding. Surely my unbridled enthusiasm is worth a thousand votes!!

One last time …. in true gravity, (and may a visit to Chicago be in my stars),

Cheers Colin

Why Golf ?

[Tom_Doak]

Why Golf ?

A friend of mine, Bob Cullen, actually wrote a book with that exact title.
