Wow. Where can you bail?

You have me intrigued.  The Majestic has a similar hole but I don't recall the bunkers.  I give up; where is the photo from?

man I wish we had anything that scenic around here. Those michigan courses look amazing. Might have to make a summer trip up there. But then again those desert courses look awesome and the links courses and of course I have to go to Bandon. Too many courses, not enough time (or money). Lol

Here's a shot of my favorite hole at the Winstar Golf Course in Oklahoma. It's the Par 3 9th on the East course. Love the shot of the Clubhouse in the background.

Seventeen hole, Par 3, huge green - usually about 160 yds. Apollo Beach Golf Club (south of Tampa, FL).  Like most greens on my course....large greens, bumpy, and relatively flat.

Got to play this course last month for my birthday. A real classic.  I chose a 3 wood to spite my caddie. Hit it into the water. Then took out my driver and knocked one 15 feet from the hole. That's my caddie with the beanie on giving me the stink eye.

Took me a minute to figure out where you were, cuz for some reason I was drawing a blank.  Now I realize you are on #10.  I also see that you have it teed up pretty high and it looks like you've got a driver in hand.  You were going for the green!  How did it work out??

From the looks of his post, they won the tourney, so I'm gonna assume it worked out pretty well ;)

Ironwood Golf Course - 36 holes

http://www.ironwoodgolfcourse.com/

My Favorite Par 5 on the Course

This is the one I call pinched nerve.  It is a Par 5 that is up the hill with a dog leg right. It is about 270 to run out the fairway. You have to thread the needle with the tree lined fairway.  It begins a stretch of three tough finishing holes.

This is the next hole that is also pretty tough, a downhill shot with long iron off the tee, and you have to land it in about a 30 yard area to have a shot at the green as it turns sharply to the left.  235 to run out to the end.

Great sunrise this morning, I need to get some waterproof shoes though.  The grass was a bit wet.

The green of my favorite par 4.

    • Day 159 1-19 Flow drill while attempting to add arch in wrist on downswing. Not where it needs to be but felt good working on swing flow. 
    • Day 1 (19 Jan 26) - after a week lay-off due to travels, felt great to get in some drills in the backyard today.  Started with lead arm only short pitches focused on squared face and light divot post ball.  Haven’t done this in a while and it showed, with some skulls and slices.  Settled into easy flighted balls - wrapped up with standard two handed swings.  Good restart to the daily drills. 
    • That depends what you do within those two.  Are they your only options?   Check out Fit for Golf if you get a moment.  It's linked on the sidebar;  I did it for two years, stopped for a really bad reason, and I plan to get back to it soon.   Mike Carroll also has a great free podcast about a lot of topics in golf fitness. 
    • Day 19, 1/19.  Finished work in time to spend 25 minutes hitting balls (hit 15) indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Usual focus.    
    • Day 30 - 2026-01-19 Got 10 minutes in on the mat / net working on exagerrating movements I'm working on. And grip. Also worked with my friendly AI to summarize key negative tendencies I have so that I can build a personal checklist to follow. Will do more mirror work tonight.
