This is the logo from a course about 5 miles from me. A great course but a goofy logo.

Thanks for posting.  Looks more like a Chinese dragon.  I took the a picture of the one below in Shanghai.

My favorite is still The Olympic Club, but these are cool:

SFGC - slightly subversive. Almost menacing.

Because, Flipper!

Clever w/the crossing clubs, reminds me of Met Museum logo.

Because, pirates! Arrrrrr, shiver me timbers.

Possum Trot is a nice course right up the street from me in North Myrtle Beach. Strange logo but decent golf course.

I almost always try to visit Possum Trot when I am over that way. Makes for an enjoyable round of golf most every time.

My favorite local course also has one of the worst logos I've ever seen:

Even without the weird graphic, I count three different fonts...

Face is modeled on Kohler. Despite his denials. IMHO.

Here's a strange logo from a course I played twice this week. I have no idea what a pirate ship has to do with this golf course.

Is that some kind of cross on the sail?  They might be claiming a connection to the pilgrims.

Maybe it's supposed to be the Santa Maria?

"Fairways of Halfmoon" is a weird name; it sounds more like a J.R.R. Tolkien novel than a golf course.

Halfmoon is the name of the Town the course is in. So it sort of makes sense. But yeah, strange name, strange logo, but nice golf course.

Not a pirate ship, Half Moon was Henry Hudson's ship. He sailed up the Hudson River in 1607.

    • Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.

    • I'm currently recuperating from surgery, so no golf, but have been thinking about this quite a bit. This and the don't overbend the right arm thing. It's hard for me to even pose the position, so I'm not 100% sure, but I feel like it's impossible to have the right humerus along the shirt seam and not overbend your right arm, unless your hands are down near your hips. If the left arm is up at or above the shoulder plane and your right arm is bent less than 90 degrees, then your right humerus has to raise or your hands will get pulled apart. Your left hand can't reach your right hand unless either the right upper arm is up or the right arm is overbent. Is that right? If it is, then focusing on not overbending the right arm would force you to raise the humerus. And actually thinking further on it, if you do overbend your right arm, then you're basically forcing your upper arm down or forcing your left arm to bend. Since (for me at least) bending the left arm too much is not something I think I need to worry about, it means that the bend in the trail arm is really the driving force behind what happens to the right humerus. 
    • I managed to knock off a 3, a 13, and a 15 a couple of weeks ago. The 3 was a 185 yard par 3 with a 6 iron to 12 feet. 13 was a 350 yard par 4, which was a 2 iron and a 9 iron to about a foot. 15 was a 560 yard par 5 with a driver in a bunker, 4 iron into the semi, gap wedge to 8 feet and a putt.
