Jason, how about an article on best walkable courses in U.S. and/or best executive or Par 3 muni courses? Right now with COVID-19 many courses are walking only...kind of refreshing for those of us that can still enjoy a good walk spoiled in comfort / without achy joints!

Course Dream of Playing: Augusta, St. Andrews Old Course, Pebble Beach

Best Course I've Played: Torrey Pines; Pine Valley (OK we just sneaked on and used the practice range and facility but it still felt as cool as if we had played it!)

Where I Shot Best Round: Torrey Pines - 87 from the tips was not lowest score but best performance based on course rating/slope. Good thing it was dry and hard! Best round as far as lowest score - 76 at Buffalo Run Golf Course in Colorado.

Current Home Course: Buffalo Run, Riverdale, Green Valley Ranch in Colorado - Denver in my opinion has as good if not the best value and selection of public courses of any metro area in the U.S., plus the ball flies a tad farther!

Where I learned to play: as a kid, I learned on Pitch & Putt Course Al Boem's in White House, NJ - and as an adult, SpringHill Golf Course, Aurora, Colorado.

Growing up in Wyoming with its short seasons, golf was not the emotional time it is now. Many of the courses that I have an attachment to are because of television. A few of them I have played, a few I have seen and many are my fantasy.
1. My former home course, The Cheyenne Country Club in Wyoming is not spectacular but one of those hidden gems that most know nothing about. Great scenery, testing golf and great people. Wish I was still in Wyoming.
2. Pebble Beach. I was there is 1967 while in the Army. The golf shop offered to let me play but the green fees were the same as my monthly pay, about $75. I was allowed to walk around and will never forget the experience.
3. Cherry Hills CC in Denver, CO is a course filled with history. Arnold Palmer drove the first green to win the U.S. Open, and is commemorated with a plaque. Others are remembered like Hogan, Nicklaus, Sneed and others I have forgotten. Attended the Open in 1967 just before I got married and played it several times. Fascinating because of its history.
4. Augusta National and the Masters. Who doesn't have an emotional attachment to this course. The mystery of membership, the drama and especially the beauty. I gained a deeper appreciation for Augusta after my Father attended the tournament on his 75th birthday and came away awe struck, and he was not easily impressed. I will never forget his comment that . . ."things just sound different there. . ."
5. TPC Sawgrass. The 17th hole tells it all
