The Sunday Golfers Year In Review 2019 Edition

Our 2019 Year In Review "Touch is something you create by hitting a million golf balls." - Lee Trevino While we apologize for the lack of posting on our blog as of late, we have all been very busy to travel around and play new courses in our area together. With work, school, and other engagements, finding the right time get together and play is not easy.  However, that has not stopped us from playing every chance we get. If you would like to see what we have been up to, or just want to check in on some pretty sweet photos we have taken, check us out on our Instagram @TheSundayGolfers. January 26th - We began our year at our local municipal Pitman Golf Course . While it may not be Bethpage Black level of municipal, this course was designed by the same man who designed East Lake Golf Club in Georgia, where they play the Tour Championship every year. It is not the most challenging golf course in the area, but its classic design makes it fun to play every single time we te

Bethpage Black - The Highlight of 2019

Bethpage Black "- WARNING - The Black Course Is An Extremely Difficult Golf Course Which We Recommend Only For Highly Skilled Golfers." - Warning Sign at Bethpage Black (Played on August 6th, 2019) There are some courses in the world we would drop everything to play.

Bulle Rock Golf Course, located in Havre de Grace, Maryland, was built by legendary golf course architect Pete Dye back in the late 1990s. It is about an hour and fifteen minutes away from where we live, and is actually a pretty beautiful ride, especially early in the morning like when we went. Bulle Rock hosted the LPGA Championship five straight times from 2005-2009. The course can play very long, with thick rough and slick greens. It is one of the best maintained courses we have ever played and look forward to going back as soon as possible. The views were incredible, especially off the 10th tee. You can see for miles ahead of you as you bomb one out into the fairway (or rough). We played it from one in from the tips to give ourselve
