@DavidMcLayKidd Redanarritzarang certainly isn’t one of the 12! Great addition to the office

Scarecrow’s No. 2 green gets your attention very early in the round. From this reverse angle, you see even more of the devious shape and slopes from @DavidMcLayKidd and @NickSchaan — and why sometimes staying right is the “safe” play (until you have to putt).

@GorgeAnkleFxr @GambleSands @DavidMcLayKidd @MattGinella @firepitstories Thanks for coming to check out Scarecrow, hope it was worth your journey!

If built/created skillfully, we don't even notice them. But they can keep Jim Urbina up at night. He, @BAJohnson_GOLF, @NickSchaan and @ThadLayton talk tie-ins.

The furthest thing from a gamble was when @GambleSands doubled down on more golf and DMK. Scarecrow is yet another fun factory.���

The new Scarecrow at @GambleSands from @DavidMcLayKidd

[Gamble Sands @GambleSands]

The gamble that became Gamble Sands took shape when David McLay Kidd brought his vision of fun to the Gebbers Family’s sandy land more than a decade ago. Here’s a peek at Part 4 of “Growing Gamble” — watch the full episode now:

@MattGinella @ArdglassGolf @media_ireland @TheOpen @Slievedonard @CarrGolfTravel Tell Tom I said hi!

[David McLay-Kidd @DavidMcLayKidd]

Spent this past week @streamsong working on the next 18 holes. First hole is roughed in, it’s dramatic! So much fun to be playing in these sand piles!

[Nick Schaan @NickSchaan]

@realDonaldTrump PS…. I’m still out $500 from the shit show you caused at Daytona since we couldn’t get in to the Fan Zone for which we had tickets after standing in line for 4+ hours. Would have been great to see you in action!

[Nick Schaan @NickSchaan]

@realDonaldTrump Everyone wants peace but what I can’t get my head around is why he has to surrender to those who invaded him? Would you surrender to an invader? You didn’t surrender to the FBI at Maralago…. In fact you just returned with boxes of stuff that was “yours” Putin needs to stand down

Par 3 golf courses are popping up all over the map. There's a gem
Of a course designed by @DavidMcLayKidd called Quicksands at @GambleSands that has to rank up there with the best of them. If you've not experienced it for yourself, it's worth a trip up to the Pacific Northwest

[Derek Duncan @feedtheball]

Take an exclusive tour of the site of Streamsong's newest 18-hole course

@DavidMcLayKidd will design the next course at @streamsong . He’ll have a world of sand at his disposal. The golf world awaits what he will create. Read on about the newest site.
