Postcard from Punchbowl Golf

This week, we visit Punchbowl Golf.  I put a link to their website a few weeks ago when I found out about them from Geoff Shackelford.  They're a website that focuses a lot on golf course design and architecture.  After all, the authors of the blog are course architects!

They have a wonderful piece up - with video complement - of an interesting course called the Sheep Ranch.  It has 13 greens.  The course has no set routing.  Match play winners are supposed to dictate how the course is played next after any one hole.  Cool idea, huh?

Cash at Bushwood Country Club has an interview with Blair O'Neal.  She's hot and will be on the next Big Break series, kicking off very soon.  Blair is making the rounds as Heather Jones has a crack at her at Real Women Golf.

As always, TANG Golfing is looking to hear from you.  We want to hear and see your love of the game, you on the course, and we'll even put it on our site.  Drop us a line sometime.

Spencer over at Tuna Golf wonders why people give a damn about Sergio's persistently childish behavior.  I wonder what The Golf Girl has to say about her man's sissy rant at the Masters.

Trevor Immelman didn't play too well at Augusta, but he didn't complain.  Perhaps, as the Golf Watch tells us, it's because he can drum so well.

I also wanted to pass this along for those of you who have AmExs.

Finally, we'll keep the Masters stuff going one more day.  Here are a couple of first hand accounts of first time trips to Augusta from NPR and the Sand Trap.
