@andrewjcarr29 @garrett_TFE @feedtheball @InnocenceCapit1 @UESgolf @chadmumm I am not aware of any official role for RTJ at CPC. As Garrett notes, he was in the area doing Spyglass but the club was notoriously frugal dating to their early years when things were super lean. Green chairmen and Sandy Tatum are the only figures who made changes I know about.

@BanRangeFinders @Mvillegas03 And yet you follow me! 🤡

[@geoffshac.bsky.social @GeoffShac]

@Mvillegas03 @BanRangeFinders You need it explained to you that there wasn’t much roll? You had strong opinions and didn’t even watch? I can’t but you a cable subscription, sorry.

[@geoffshac.bsky.social @GeoffShac]

@Mvillegas03 If you watched the golf then you’d know the roll was not a factor in producing the distances on any hole at Pebble.

[@geoffshac.bsky.social @GeoffShac]

@Mvillegas03 @TrevorImmelman Look at all that roll! (x marks the landing spot).

[@geoffshac.bsky.social @GeoffShac]

@TheModelManiac @TrevorImmelman I’ve asked the USGA for anything they have on this front and they won’t divulge. There is a chart somewhere estimating what various clubhead speeds would see in terms of distance loss, but they won’t share. Fred Ridley has and estimated he’d lose 6-7 yards on his drives.

@apindara That putts % number isn’t great, but it’s the Playing Through % that kinda makes liars out of certain people making claims about % of ad time. The initials BC come to mind!

@MichaelAlexaki1 @BobHarig Love ya Michael and you know I feel for the Alexakis’ and Palisades, but it’s just not looking remotely feasible to introduce tournament activity to Allenford or the canyon in any way. Riviera has a lot of events in the coming years that will come at a better time for all.

The fires in LA have affected so many people and caused so much damage. @markbaldwin1 writes about a 9-hole muni, in a working class neighborhood that faces an unknown future.
Their clubhouse is destroyed and the future of the course is in question.

“Great golf courses should have at least one silly hole.” – Frank Hannigan

Wacky, weird, crazy, dumb—call them what you will, silly holes help make good golf courses better, writes @GeoffShac.

Bunkers are supposed to be hazards. Not hell holes.

“We need to stop the worldwide madness of making bunkers bigger, deeper, costlier, and thought to need renovation when one out of a hundred golfers doesn’t draw a perfect lie.”
