    Ecstatic to announce I have signed a contract to research/write the biography of one Seth Jagger Raynor. If all goes well, it will be available this time in 2021. Club historians, I'll be in touch. @SHistorians @tonynyssegcs @KellyShumate4 @Wanumetonomy191 @don27dog @JonathanTurf

    I bet almost everyone who has travelled would agree with this. "I think that if everyone sort of had the ability to travel more and experience other cultures, they would be more willing to get along, potentially.” ~Xander Schauffele @BradleySKlein @MattGinella 🧳✈️🚘🛤️🚄

    Because of the breadth of knowledge that I have about the designs of Raynor & Banks, I understand how to properly play their creations. Here I am hitting my fourth shot into the par-4 at Hackensack GC. @DavidPMarchand1 @Wanumetonomy191 @KellyShumate4 @Wswick @Evan_Schiller

    Surprised to learn that the Yale Golf Course renovation project as recently as Dec. 6 was appearing before the New Haven City Plan Department for permitting. Red = existing golf features. Green = proposed golf features. @BPBlackMetal @TheGirling

    Drone photos of @Yale_GolfCourse from over the weekend. It has been a tough summer to grow grass in New Haven with rain fall well above average, combined with high heat and humidity. Shown are 9-11. More to come. @GeoffShac @TheGirling @mdvessely @BPBlackMetal
