Re: Courses with the Toughest Greens

Wyntoon and Crouching Beast. You'll often find that you're better off with a 30 foot uphill putt rather than a 3 foot downhill/side hill one. Proper placement is tremendously important on these two courses.

love to se it done for Links
It's a beauty all right. Got to play it a few times in real life and it was an interesting and challenging course, not to mention the spectacular scenery.

Re: Pasatiempo GC

Well, it's been many years since I've played Pasatiempo, and I've only played it a couple of times, but from what I can recall I think you've got the plaque in the right place.

Re: Pasatiempo GC

I'm so glad you're doing Pasatiempo. It's probably my favorite course that I've ever played. The bunkering is fantastic and sometimes deceptive. They really make you think twice about which club to use. It's a very strategic course. Can't wait to tackle this beauty on Links.

Re: The Westin Mission Hills Golf Resort

I've played the Gary Player course at Mission Hills years ago and remember it being a lot of fun to play. Unfortunately I haven't played any of the other courses at Mission Hills, but was supposed to go to the ANA Inspiration this past week until Covid put an end to spectators attending once again. ...

Re: The Masters: Fall 2020 Edition

Looks like rain and possible lightning every single day from now through ... of course ... Sunday. Then it's clearing from Monday onward. I wouldn't be surprised if the tournament does not get finished this weekend.
