Title: Calls received at a public course course (OT)
Post by: Eric Strulowitz on November 28, 2014, 05:37:29 PM
Supposedly, these are calls that  were  received at a public golf course.  With all the bad news we hear almost every day it seems, I thought a little humor would not hurt!  Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!

Links golf course where trees had been allowed to grown over the years

Member: Why are we taking the trees out?
Pro Shop: To restore the open playing characteristics of the course as it was designed to be played.
Member: Oh, fair enough. I suppose they weren't natural here, they just self seeded.

We got a call asking how bad were the mosquitoes. They were horrible that year in MN. I told the caller a man had just gotten carried away on 10 tee.

OK.  That explains how I've managed to find range balls while looking for errant shots, hit by my partner or opponents of course, at this year's Dixie Cup.
