I am the Director of Agronomy for National Links Trust. I ask everyone I know to please sign this petition to keep NLT in control of the golf courses in Washington, DC. We need your help. Please share. c.org/KWGLXPsgYX

Lots of chatter about high-priced green fees recently (rightfully so) - but quality #golf isn’t always expensive. Here’s my ‘Most Intriguing Under $100’ (among U.S. courses I’ve played/want to play). If I’m missing something good, put me on. List = Max Green Fee, Walking Rate

Love seeing this post @TimGavrich. Always good seeing @links_national getting some positive press.
This perpetuates the nonsense that exclusive golf has a monopoly on style over municipal, public and resort golf. Part of the age-old myth of inherent private golf superiority. Here are four muni course logos that are as evocative as the salivated-over exclusive-club logos.

Out with the old. @jeffersongolfpa averages 242 rounds a day and 51,000 per year, and yet their greens are somehow always among the purest in Philly. 🎥 x @jaren_hunsaker

Come meet Tim, Bill, and Bob—my random pairing from the brilliant @jeffersonvillegolf. And later, meet Rich, the superintendent and unofficial course historian with a treasure trove of Jeffersonville artifacts.⁣ #munigolf

A few from a very early a.m. summer visit by Keystone Golf Collective. Thinking most followers will know each hole…

If you’re looking for some golden age, publicly accessible golf architecture in the Philly area these days, Jeffersonville Golf Club is your spot. A 1931 Donald Ross muni that Ron Prichard and Tyler Rae have tuned up beautifully, there’s great golf and excellent value here.

New season, lots of news. Our main building is being demolished in the coming weeks, and our temporary pro shop is coming along. Things will be different for the time being, but we’re so happy to offer golf during this time. Stay tuned!

Now that it’s been 2 days and it is definitely not an April Fools joke... Here is 39 seconds of what made #RoyWilliams loved by all @GCSAA members around the 🌎. Ole Roy said on Wednesday that he was wrong a lot of time but I think we can all agree he was spot on here! – at North Carolina, USA

Just to be clear @RU_Turf_School is only online this fall and winter due to COVID. The program normally consists of two 10-week in-person sessions with a summer internship requirement in between. Over 600 of our former students are currently employed as superintendents.
Replying to @chuck_prcc
Send them to me Chuck, we'll learn them up. We got 40 starting the online fall session next week. Online in the winter too--sign up now and save $ on living costs. @RU_Turf_School

We're excited to introduce the Public Restoration Project, an evolution of Logo Madness. Partnering with @z_blair, we will use redesigned logos to support excellent, affordable public golf courses. Read more here: thefriedegg.com/public-resto…

An old @JeffersonGolfPA tweet thread about their future short course had me back on google earth. Looks like it's updated to 2019! Check out the difference from ~2016 to 2019! Trees removed, new bunkers, more short grass, expanded greens. 😍 @RShillingII @TylerRaeDesign
