@Griffin_Golf Safe to say a good amount of us learned the game at a place like this!

We're off and running at Railway Golf Club in Batavia, OH. Topp Shape has begun staking the holes for our new public 9-hole par-3 course. We'll be introducing a collection of golden age-inspired greens to the public on a stunning property on the east side of Cincinnati.

Just a yearly #EarthDay reminder that when designed and managed responsibly, golf courses can provide positive impacts for their surrounding natural environments. Wildlife habitats, carbon sequestration, stormwater filtration to name a few!

Our Clermont County site starting to show its curves as the vistas open up with the removal of the invasive honeysuckle and low scrub.

@BPBlackMetal The music comp is a fun one with gca. Endless takes, many similarities.

Sneak peek at some of the new holes we're working on for Cincy's newest public par-3 course. Hope to share more soon 🚂

[Scott Laffin @featuregolf]

Slow pace of play. Tired bunkers. Not enough tee space. Worn out greens. An aging irrigation system. A stretched maintenance staff.

Sound familiar?

It can be overwhelming to tackle course projects alone and we're excited to begin the journey with you.

The key to having a master plan is that you don’t have to implement it all at once — or even at all.

Chicago sports night. Bears, cubs, bulls, hawks.

Third baseman Alex Bregman and the Chicago Cubs are in agreement on a five-year, $175 million contract, sources tell ESPN. One year after their failed pursuit of Bregman in free agency, the Cubs land one of the biggest bats of the winter.

[Scott Laffin @featuregolf]

Bump.

[Bethpage Black Metal @BPBlackMetal]

...there's nothing in this situation that compels those owners to provide affordable golf to less-privileged Cincinnatians. And, of course, most of the courses would probably end up as housing developments instead. Anyway, don't sell your courses, Cincinnati.

Bummer email to end 2025. The hard work and selflessness of @links_national and all involved in the progress over the past few years just erased. Really sorry to hear this for the DC public golf community.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to Cincy golfers (and everybody else!). We’ve begun designs to transform this property into a public 9 hole par-3 course. Located just outside the 275 loop on the east side, it will have residential development with the golf. More coming soon!

@1beardedgolfer May the pillaging be minimal with maximum plundering

[Chicago Bears @ChicagoBears]

WALK IT OFF.
