Love studying, playing, photographing, and writing about the best golf courses on Mother Earth.

Is there a more impressive clubhouse at a municipal course in the country than George Wright in Boston?

[Golf Course Gurus @GolfCourseGurus]

@AnthonyRayGray @CapeKidnappers No doubt about it. I think that is one of the biggest surprises people have when visiting. The terrain is much more subdued, which is actually why I think the front nine is the better side of the course. The terrain and architecture there is top shelf!

Few places love the camera more than @CapeKidnappers

The 3rd on the South Course gets all the hype at @GolfTorrey but I'm in the camp that thinks the 15th on the North Course is better. Plus, you have to love that Tom Weiskopf reversed the nines so that the most dramatic shots on the course were saved for late in the round.

Australia has an absolutely ridiculous collection of one-shotters, but this one doesn't get talked about enough. #4 @oceandunesgolf

15-18 at Cape Wickham is flat out jaw-dropping! @capewickham

@YeahClickClack Best 36 hole club on 🌎

[Golf Course Gurus @GolfCourseGurus]

@YeahClickClack @stenodocgolf Honestly one of the most unique and memorable courses out there. I thought it was a hoot!

[Golf Course Gurus @GolfCourseGurus]

@YeahClickClack My slightly off white socks almost prevented me from teeing it up there.

@jliebertgolf I’ve felt for quite sometime it is one of the more underrated courses in the country.

[Golf Course Gurus @GolfCourseGurus]

@jliebertgolf @umichgolfcourse @umichmgolf @UMichWGolf One of my all time favorite college courses, and sitting in the shadow of the Big House is epic.

@CCCurmudge @mikemaro29 @GolfTravelerJoe 11 at Trails is one of the best holes at the resort IMO. 12 enjoys a pretty special part of the property. 14 is a love/hate. 16 is one of my favorite par fives at the resort. 18 is probably the weakest finisher of the five.

[Golf Course Gurus @GolfCourseGurus]

@mikemaro29 @GolfTravelerJoe Old Mac isn’t my favorite there, but it probably has the best six hole finish of any of the courses. 12 is the worst Redan on the planet. 9 isn’t a very good Cape hole. 3 is all world.

@MrLustFn Played there last week and really enjoyed it. Mike Strantz would brilliant!

[Golf Course Gurus @GolfCourseGurus]

@GolfTravelerJoe @MrLustFn No doubt, it is a strong second-shot golf course. The strategy comes in knowing what parts of the greens you can hit and what parts will simply repel your ball away. The property isn't as compelling compared to other top tier public courses; but it's a pleasant walk.

[Golf Course Gurus @GolfCourseGurus]

@GolfTravelerJoe There is no question there is various opinions between the panels, but some courses aren't that far apart in the rankings. It is often a few decimal points separating them which causes shifts in the lists each year.

[Golf Course Gurus @GolfCourseGurus]

@rr74cm @GolfTravelerJoe Seaside is one of the more underrated courses in the country.

[Golf Course Gurus @GolfCourseGurus]

@mikemaro29 @GolfTravelerJoe You can put me in the category of people that prefers Old Mac to Spyglass. I feel like Old Mac has 12 great holes and 6 average ones, and Spyglass is the opposite with 6 great holes and 12 average ones.
