I don’t care if you’re a celebrity....having your name embroidered on your bag and not on any tour or team is right up there with iron head covers.

That doesn't bother me. Your average Joe with too much money is one thing, but I can understand celebrities who play in charity events or Pro-Ams doing this.

Have the short par 3 set up so the Statue of Liberty is framed over the green from the tee. And make it so if you go long, there’s trouble.

I'll take that into consideration. The trouble long will most likely be water!

Since I'm King of the World in this scenario. Once a year my course will host a special high-school 2 person mixed gender (boy and girl) Ryder Cup tournament each year in which the winning pair receives full scholarships to the college of their choice.

I think you'd run afoul of the NCAA there, not to mention the USGA.

So every PGA pro, ever?

My college golfers are excepted, at least. 😉

Mine would be a co-op like previously mentioned, but it would be exclusively a GOLF club with the following:

  • Pro shop with fitting capabilities
  • Top shelf bar w/spirits from a new distillery in the area, but no frou-frou drinks
  • Grill with awesome sandwiches (breakfast is cat-head biscuits, big and loaded with breakfast meats and cheese)
  • 27 holes of Championship Golf, with nine holes of each of the following:
    • Mountain Course:
      • lots of elevation changes and slopes
      • minimal water hazards
      • undulating greens
    • Parkland Course:
      • fairways through manicured pine forests (no underbrush, just pine needles)
      • elevated tees and greens
      • ponds and streams throughout, but not too severe
      • forced carries over water only from back tees
    • Links Course:
      • wide-open, converted pasture that plays hard and fast
      • large, undulating greens
      • deep, revetted greenside and fairway bunkers
      • multiple opportunities for bump-and-run shots
      • thick rough
    • Each course will be well marked and detailed yardage books will be available in the pro shop
    • Driving Range
      • Grass and high end mats
      • Targets measured from each stall
      • TopTracer technology
      • Titleist Pro-V1 range balls
      • 350 yards long
  • 18 hole Short Course
    • Holes range from 120 to 260 yards from the tips
    • Holes range from 90 to 180 from the forward tees
    • Holes have manicured "fairways" leading up to the green
    • Holes have bunkers well short of greens on longer holes
    • Holes have a separate tee box for juniors so that they can play holes as par threes, fours, and fives (tees on longest holes will be even further back than longest adult tees to accomplish this for older juniors)
    • Junior tee boxes will be turf capable of holding a tee to cut down on maintenance

    • Day 2: August 12.  I did 25 balls of the ruler drill from LSW for putting.  24 of the 25 stayed on the ruler through 36" but some were smoother than others.  I suspect if the ruler (and goal) had been 48" far fewer would have stayed on.  I'm trying to go by sound, and not look, since when I attempt short putts, I don't want to look (although now I wonder if that's conventional wisdom that turns out to be wrong). 
    • Day 17: did mirror work while watching TV. Working on wrist feels. 
    • Day 315 - 2025-08-12 Got a little work in before Juniors showed up for one of their Summer Sessions.
    • I always knew it as high but never that distance was 90-95% of rating! That has always played to my advantage. I never have but I could totally vanity cap myself by playing **super** long courses that are otherwise super easy. There was one course like that in LA that I used to play that helped my cap like that. The back tees were close to 7k yards, but otherwise the course was incredibly easy. Wide open, misses almost always had a play at the green from the adjacent hole, flat greens, not challenging green complexes, etc. But it got a high rating because it was so long. So I could swing hard, spray and pray, and score well (relative to my handicap).
    • Do need a special ferrul. Thanx 😉
