Some very interesting tidbits in there if one reads and listens.


Noteably it taking a trip overseas to convince RTJ not to demolish those beautiful, natural contours at ECC.

Shane Bacon must have received the message as he's wearing a ECC hat on TGC.


I look forward to seeing what Jackson and Kahn come up with.

It looked like an arboretum when I watched a tournament played there a few years ago.

I”be played Eugene quite a few times and worked a lot of tournaments there through the years.  The changes look really good, although I’m not a fan of the Augusta white sand.

Perhaps they were A. V. Macan contours. Perhaps they would be better off re-establishing the Macan routing. Better to have a Golden Age course than a Dark ages course. ;)

I thought that was interesting as well. Apparently Rees or Bobby haven't experienced the same epiphany.

no going back to Egan as RTJ turned the 18th green into the 1st tee and kept the fairway, the 17th into the 2nd etc...

New clubhouse and logo a few years back.  I really like their new logo, understated and simple.

Probably need to change the logo every 5 years or so to keep the merch sales up.

Kind of an ugly logo. But, my buddy Bruce would probably drop some cash for it. ;)

Someone privately emailed me saying the logo reminded them of the Blair Witch Project.  Hmmmmm
