Cool. I love old golf courses. The two local courses that I play the most are Forest Hills, built in 1926 by Donald Ross (and subsequently butchered several times by others), and Aiken Golf Club, built in 1912 by Donald Ross & J. Inglis. Aiken is a dream to play and walk, but it's a 20 mile drive, so I don't get there much. Forest Hills is only 1 mile away from my home.

I'm still working on an invite to Augusta Country Club, 1899 by David Ogilvie, Donald Ross redesign 1927. When ACC was built, it truly was in the country. Old pictures show it surrounded by pastures and woods. Now it's in the heart of the Hill Section of Augusta and has an adjoining fence with Augusta National.

Do you know the difference between a BMW and a porcupine? The porcupine has its' pricks on the outside.
