If only.......

It rained gumdrops or something like that..........

To me nothing could be more fun than designing golf courses I love golf I love designing, why wouldn’t I love to design golf courses? Unfortunately for me there is exactly a high demand for golf course architects at the moment. Maybe in the future when we all live on the moon I will get my opportunity to show my skill in creating challenging doglegs, until then…I have my blog. In my imagined world somebody would tell me that they would give me all the money I want as long as I did two things, saved the environment and played as much golf as humanly possible while I did it. For the rest of my life I would play golf of course but also think of ways to make the courses I play on more environmentally friendly. I could do this by making them more condensed so they take up less space, using friendlier weed killer (stuff that doesn’t kill fish and other animals too) or possibly making them straight up look better. I quote my high school football coach when I say “look sharp, feel sharp, be sharp!� The same would apply to my golf courses along with those who play on them. One of the places I would absolutely not build a golf course is in the desert.

There’s no grass there for a reason….it wasn’t intended to be watered like crazy to get a few strands of grass. If I was getting all the money I needed, wanted, had to have, I think that I would want to be stationed in Tenesseeish possibly Kentuckyish mostly because it is warm enough so I don’t have to deal with -800 degree weather like I do here, but also because it is wet enough so I wouldn’t have to water it 45 times day.

The numbers in the last two sentence make it sound like I’m exaggerating but I am definitely not. I would then purchase around 400 sheep and keep them around the golf course, this of course would cut down on amount of fuel I have to use for lawn mowers. It would also give it kind of an Irish Links course which is totally awesome…especially for a golf course in Tennesseeish/Kentuckyish. I will write more later….as for now I am very tired.

If only everybody dressed up as bears, what isn't funny about a guy in a bear suit?
