Muriwai Golf Club

A links course on the West Coast of Auckland in New Zealand. It's very linksy and as it's sand based we get fantastic fairways and greens all year round. It's summer at the moment so the fairways are running a fair bit. A nice challenging course - especially when the wind blows

My first post in the forums; finally figured out why I had that red line through my name! Guess I have to get to my three posts.

Anyway, I wouldn't say this is my "home" course, but I do play in a league at Aston Oaks: http://www.astonoaksgolfclub.com/

Golfweek has it listed as the #6 public course in Ohio. I say Golfweek is nuts personally but hey..to each his own.

What's funny is that when I clicked on this thread and read the very first post (by Hogan Fan) and he listed his as Walden Ponds....that course is about 4 minutes from my house!

My home course is the Fairmont Banff Springs Golf Course.
It's loosely based on a links style.
The back nine is more challenging than the front. (in the traditional style)
It is a recognized the world over, as one of the most visually stunning courses to play

I've got a few websites for my home course.
The official site isn't as good as I would like to see it, so here are a few links:

My home course is the Fairmont Banff Springs Golf Course.

You're a lucky guy. I played it a couple years ago and it was beautiful. Also played Silvertip and Stewart Creek over in Canmore. I posted pics over in the "eye candy" golf hole thread.

I don't have a home course as I am only playing pitch and putt right now. Hoping to play a round on a full course this summer.

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
