Our son Jake got his start in "next level" baseball with the HotShots. They are a group of kids from rural Jackson County, TX led by volunteer coaches, one of whom last his truck in the fire along with all the team's gear. Please help keep them playing baseball.

@bschneider126 I think the term gets used by the architects almost as a way to get permission from owners to push the design a bit. No one ever says "stroke play" course but designers do get pushed into toning things down by some owners and committees in the interest of handicaps and score.

@Planet_Golf @capewickham Seems to me you wanted Mike's name on it to get the raters and ranking, and now that you have the ranking, you want to set the record straight?

[Don Mahaffey @grassdude]

@feedtheball @CabotSaintLucia Obviously a very beautiful green complex...but is it only me or does it seem over bunkered? Are bunkers there to make the hole more playable? Just asking based on photo, my guess if I was there in person I might feel different

@bschneider126 Golf world needs more weirdness.

Greenscape Methods Golf Construction seeks an assistant const superintendent/GPS technician. Available immediately. Currently on 18 hole renovation in Houston. DM if interested

@StretchZEllis @Rickgolfstx Have you seen the list of raters; designers on the list? It’s easy to say that a course is ranked high because someone involved is in the panel, but when you look close you’ll see that argument doesn’t hold up. It takes more than one vote.

[Don Mahaffey @grassdude]

@StretchZEllis @Rickgolfstx I don’t believe Mike Nuzzo rates for GM, however I do, as does Tom. But rather than accusations of ballot stuffing, why don’t you make an architectural argument, especially since you seek a career in the field.

Most affordable course on TOUR? Greens Fees for Memorial Park, host of next week's Houston Open:

@jbcullens @BryanTweed16 @GOLF_com There’s only one course in Golf Mag Top 100 and it’s not on the DMN list

@chambleebrandel I don’t think golf fans over react when one or two players have an exceptional week. But when 24 players are -17 like at TPC Sum or 72 of 77 are under par at Sherwood - the combo of the equipment and set up has made the pro game less fun to watch. There should be some challenge

[Don Mahaffey @grassdude]

PGA tour at ZOZO championship. 77 players, 70 under par. I get weather, and other conditions that make the course easier one day than the next. But the Tour is owned by the players and it’s obvious they prefer not to be tested

[Don Mahaffey @grassdude]

@TheFoodSnobFrog @Sundogmonkey @SmartGolfBets @GolfandGambling It’s not new, it’s newly renovated but originally built in mid 30’s. It’s a huge golf course, almost 300 acres with ample room around every hole. Largest course in Houston area.

[Don Mahaffey @grassdude]

@the_woke_yolk Sure. And your bunker shapes can come from the clouds you see drifting in the sky.

@Dundee_Golf Ahh...the smell of pond muck in the morning...nothing like it
