Pine Valley

Ro lives near Pine Valley, but will never have the pleasure of playing it.
It's hard to fathom sometimes that I reside within a twenty mile radius of Pine Valley Golf Club, the perennial #1 golf course in America. It's actually quite maddening because, even though it is seemingly right around the corner, I most likely will never have the pleasure of staring down Hell's Half Acre in person. Sure I can play a similar course across the street, but it's not the same.
A chauvinistic smirk emerged on my face reading this blurb: "While Augusta National allows women to play, Pine Valley doesn't even let women on the property" until I realized that, 99.99% of all males, including myself are in the same boat.
Maybe I'll picket…

you couldnt be more wrong man. i worked at pine valley for 2 years on maintence as an intern. played the course MANY times and they do allow women to play after 12 on sundays and there was an "unofficial womens championchip." also annika played when i was working there. though the course is very sexist, your comment about women coudlnt be more incorrect.

Following the 911 tradgety,Pine Valley opened its course to anyone who made a contribution to a fund for the families of the victims.I Believe the 1st foursome out was four women.
