-Hole in one

-Break 80

-Shoot par

-Shoot below par

-Visit and be custom fitted at the oven

-Play a course from each continent

-Play at Augusta

 

I'm sure there are more but that's what I came up with off the top of my head

Sounds good, except... I'm not so sure about playing in Antarctica.  Is that just a groomed snow and ice course there?  Must be hard to hold a green. Er..... a white patch. :unsure: I guess yellow or orange balls are a must. Talk about losing a ball in the rough though...buried in white powder, better play a provisional.  Slim chance of finding that one!  But hey, it's your list!  Haha!

Well, I guess I don't have to go to Antarctica to try that out.  Supposed to have snow through the day and tonight on top of this too.  Golf anyone?

Great thread. I have been very blessed to play and visit some amazing places. For me, I would want to play one round at St. Andrews with my boys as the sun set on another day.

Grew up on LI.  Used to sleigh ride on the black and red courses first holes.  Have played every course there multiple times before and after the re-models.  Also attended the last rain soaked open there.  Have not been back to play in a while.

I am a transplant to LI as we moved up from Philly two years ago. I play the black three or four times a year and the Red and Blue about the same. It is definitely a nice perk of living here and gets me some nice invites when I get people from outside the area on to play.

Offer stands for anyone as I am always up for a game at the Black and really enjoy playing it with people for the first time.  Bethpage is really a special place and again willing to arrange a game for anyone that would like to get out and play this great track.
