    Randpark Course, Johannesburg, South Africa - 1st tee - don't really remember how the shot played out, but looks like a bit of an early "ding" to me......

    Just noticed this.  Realise not to me but  I am an Essex boy LOL (brother a teacher is Surrey made me think it).....These days I live Sydney Australia so those dull winter matts a long way away..............Cheers  I think that course was just a local (but still fine when not winter) municipal course Belhus I think.  I often played Chart Hills (Company had membership)...........I also often I played Lullingstone in Kent with friend's......V long course until they invented the hot faced clubs LOL.......... and OK still long for me when accuracy off days :)

    Wow, what a small world. I live 15 mins away from Lullingstone :-)

    And yeah you're dead right, it's a bit of long way round of those Comp tees ;-) The sort of course you wonder what the fuss is about until you get off the back pegs, lol

    Chart Hills, one of the few courses I could play forever and not get bored. Love the place. Wouldn't make a bad course on here either really.

    Anyways, here's me taking a chance, lol. Wonder what lie this would have been in UL format? ;-)

    Pic 1: Hogan's Bridge

    Pic 2:  Amen Corner, #12, Golden Bell (Bogeyed LOL)

    Pic 3:  Tee on #1 (Birdied)

    LMAO!  Just got lucky...my wife saw ad in paper for admin position at Augusta National (We live just across river in South Carolina) and applied.  Ended up with job in the Grounds department.  Every year, employees and spouses/parents get to play course before they demolish and rebuild greens/fairways.  Bucket list checked!!
