New Member intro from NY
« on: June 02, 2015, 09:26:36 PM »
Hello all,

New member here and happy to be aboard. A little about myself. I am 35 years old with a wife and 8 month old baby....so not really posting too many scores this year. I grew up on Long Island and have played many fine courses (yes I've played NGLA and its THE BEST) I went to Penn State University. I currently live in Park Slope Brooklyn.

I am looking to share an interest in Tillinghast Design and Raynor /Banks Collaborations. The Tillinghast interest stems from Southward Ho country Club in Bay Shore and Bethpage State park. The Raynor /Banks interest stems from Southampton GC

I am also looking to share an interest in classic 9 hole golf courses as well...especially Alfred Tull's Poxabogue GC in Sagaponack NY.

Thanks everyone
Justin

From a fellow 35-year-old New Yorker, welcome!

When you do have some time to play, let me know. I'd love to tee it up and discuss our shared architectural interests.

Goat Hill? Shelter Island? Its awesome. The blind shots are so much fun. That kind of golf experience is my favorite.
