Looks nice. A design by Junior. Using bulldozers. NTTAWWT. NYS has 8 public courses that RTJ Sr did in the 1930's with the CCC and I've been fortunate enough to have played 6 of them at least once and DE over 100 times. All had his signature, raised tees with raised, tiered greens. "Jones’ design thought: That it should be easy to make a bogey but hard to make a par."
Durand Eastman is still $18 for 18 holes. It's owned by the county and privately managed. A benefit(?) for having a $6000 tax on a $200,000 house.A few people feel the rain. Most people just get wet.

Sorry no pictures.
Went over to Anaconda MT and played Old Works.
One of 2 Nicklaus courses that is open to the public. It was built on a massive Superfund site as part of the remediation effort and eventually turned over to the county to operate.
$ 55.00 for 18 including a cart. Beautiful course with black slag sand in the traps and there are a lot of them. Well worth the drive and the coin.

There are more moving parts in these 3 swings than in a grandfather clock!!! More head bobbing than a prize fight. I'm standing to far at address and need to "squat" a bit more. The unhappy camera person added pressure. I went up 2 clubs for the shot and put it pin high. 15' right.

Fore! Who's playing golf, yo-
Mid 40’s with strong wind and slow moving traffic on the course.

Shot 47 then fell apart to 55.

Keep working NMC, you are way ahead of the game for the amount of time you've been playing.
Wooley, don't get too hung up on the tight pit swing. Allowing your right arm to straighten on the downswing creates a lot of distance and helps with more consistently hitting down on the ball. Something I've worked hard on this yr (with occasionally success) after many years of following the tight to the body right arm path.

Thanks. All swing tips are good when you're working on a swing. I hit my career longest drive pissed off with tight pits over the heads of a 6some that wouldn't let me pay through. I shot my career low score being angry and tense when I got pissed off by an idiot marshal. My "full" sand wedge goes 80 yds. My "3/4" sand wedge goes 100.
@Nutmegchoi - As I was in the woman's apparel business, I feel qualified as a pro to comment. I like the muted, yet classic color story to your outfit. Great active style choices for freedom of movement with warmth. The Nike logo makes is a subtle political statement. When it dips below 45 deg., I opt for a light down jacket over a fleece pullover. And go up 1/2 club on most shots.A few people feel the rain. Most people just get wet.

I am. 2 out of 4 times. If I'm on my game. Just have to hit a few 1000 of them. Accepting your misses is the key to scoring.

I dont even know what my 100yd club is anymore, used to be a full but easy 54*- now its a 3/4 to 1/2 punch with a 54*, which isn't helping me any. Ive never been comfortable with a full swing on a 60* but I should probably start practicing that shot.

everything i have found so far suggests my pw is 45deg. there is apparently a gw available in this set that is 50.
maybe i need a 48 or something between my pw and 52
