That is a great picture.  In the US Amateur I think Cantlay may have got himself into that bunker.  Not a good place to be.

Awesome! I am guessing most guys won't go with a caddy.  No pressure on anyone to use a caddy btw.  Obviously the course would prefer it, but let's be honest, they are already getting plenty of our money.  ;-)

So our for sure guys thus far are:

@cipher

@99prblms

@Jakester23

@GolfLug

It looks like this is probably our group.  I am really looking forward to it.  I will probably call soon and scale it back to one tee time.  If anyone else wants to join, we probably need at least a couple guys(I could fill a spot or two with people I know), and would need to know soon.

I can't wait to play this course! Good thing I have a few months cause my game is in shambles right now... lots of winter rust has to be knocked off. This hole looks like it could really throw some salt in the wound of a potentially really rough day of golf lol

So if we do decide to come sunday... where will we be staying overnight? Is there a motel/hotel nearby?

I may have a condo available(it is my parents and they are not there very much) that you and @GolfLug could stay at. It is in Waukesha. I would just have to check with them and of course no costs to that.

It's just a bunker, not water. Cant swim but I can build sand castles on the beach all day :-D .

This course seems to have a ruthless quality and I am sure if the wind blows it will probably be just downright hilarious but  am gonna do my best to not show up intimidated right out of the gates. I will be a little upset if I don't break 100 but it will be really cool in two years when they play the US Open and you can REALLY follow each hole.

That a pretty girl!

Looking forward to meeting you @99prblms 3

I used to caddie at Erin Hills and the bottom picture is of the old 4th hole. The green isn't there anymore. It's up and to the left.

If you can't drive the ball in the 250 range consistently don't play the blues or blacks. There are a ton of forced carries that require 250 yards in the air to get over the tall stuff from the backs.

The caddies normally played the blues on calm days for a challenge and greens when it was windy. That's just my 2 cents.

    • there will be lots of changes.  i mean, look at newey past, each team fell off a cliff when he moved on i think max is the magic bullet   if red bull loses him then whee are they going for drivers?   lots of young talent but he is a proven winner and i’m sure top engineers love to work with him  
    • I too, like @GolfLug, remember great wedge, iron shots, or my missed putts, more than my made putts. My most memorable recently, would be: #17 Old Course St. Andrews (last year) I had been putting awful all day (I started 3 putt, 4 putt, 3 putt, 3 putt), but found a putting stroke on the back 9 and was 1 under on the back going into 16 and of course I 3-putted it for a bogey. Got to 17 and my playing partner just hit it into the hotel, so I went a little more left and decided to not try and hit it over the hotel.  And as soon as my ball was in the air, I heard one of the other caddies do the chicken noise.  LOL My shot was a little more left than I wanted, about 185 yards, I hit a 6-iron and it was drawing right at the flag.  The pin was just to the right of he bunker and towards the front of the green. My ball hit short (and just missed going into said bunker) and stopped about 15 feet left of the hole. Had a little left to right break and as soon as I hit it, I knew it was in.  Birdie on the road hole, looked at the caddie and said not bad for a Chicken.  Parred 18 (missed 10 foot birdie putt) for a 35 on the back 9 at the Old Course. #18 Springfield G&CC Last year while playing in our season long match play event, my partner and I get the 18th hole needing to win the match to move on into the knockout round.  We are tied going into 18.  A tie and we lose on overall points by .5.  Our teaching pro is on the other team (very good golfer), so we were pretty sure we needed a birdie to have a chance to win the match, I hit on of the best drives I hit all day and had about 135 yards to the pin, but it was in a place where you didn't really want to be long.  So I hit a PW and it landed just short of the flag but released about 12 feet past the hole, so have a devilish putt coming back down the hill.  Our competitors were away and the pro missed his birdie putt by inches, I thought it was in when he hit it.  So after reading the putt, which probably had a 2 cup left to right break, I made the putt to win the match.   #15 Springfield G&CC A few years back, was playing in the first round of the Club Championship (against the previous years runner-up) and my putter was balky all day.  Got to the 15 hole, 2nd Par 5 on back, and was 3-down with 4 to play.  We both hit good drives, both hit good second shots and we both hit decent 3rd shots.  I was about 15 feet and he was just a hair longer.  He missed his putt, I had another slider putt down the hill, with about a foot of right to left break and made the putt.  I birded the next hole, to go 1 down, but not a memorable putt as I only needed a bogey to beat him on that hole, he had all kinds of issues going on.  Lost on 17, as he birdied it, right after I missed mine to lose 2&1.

    • Ok so as of this point the bug persists. We figured out that I can select the tees (gold or blue) manually and it resets the back 9 scorecard to the Lake course, but as soon as I add #10 manually, it automatically sets the back 9 as Ridge and no amount of playing around with the tees changes it. And it still doesn't save #10 when I sign off. Andy from support said he will speak to the tech team about it, but it seems there isn't anything either of us can do at this point. I've accepted that #10 is simply lost. I now have 17 correct holes and that's going to have to be good enough.
