Sometimes there are some less than ideal
suggestions thrown out there pete wanted to call this course the mirror of ord which means fields of gold which was inspired by the name of a james braid course scotland really rolls off the tongue for those those those indianans in carmel and and i i can't even bring i'm afraid like you neil of this pronunciation now started here for the party now yeah oh boy
I got all those Hawaiian pronunciations dialed, but Carmel, Indiana.
We're an hour and 21 minutes in.
We got our first Andrew Tate mention.
Back to Carmel.
Charter member Bill Wick of Crooked Stick saw Pete walking around in 1966 with this knobby Crooked Stick and said, how about that?
You look like an old Scottish shepherd, Pete.
What if we call it Crooked Stick?
Just swatting a stone with it.
Yeah, just casual.
When Pete had to step down from the board later on or the membership board of directors or whatever it was, they wrote this whole missive that was tongue in cheek and funny thanking him.
And they did reference him paying no more than twice what the land was worth to build the chorus after getting drunk under the table by our cagey lady.
Well...
According to Chris Worthwine, a historian on this excellent fried egg video about Crooked Stick, he said that somebody made a drawing for the course plans, but Pete claimed that he hadn't actually drawn it and neither had Alice.
So it's unclear to me who made this drawing, but there was a drawing made by someone that was used to raise money.
packet right to get you got to have a visual for the bank for the loan thesis yeah for the loan yeah that was was it dean beeman that that had that same story i think about same story i've heard this like you know command c command v story uh on almost all of these 10 courses like yeah we you had to go to the bank with something so somebody made something it wasn't i don't think it was pete and then you know we got the money and he just threw away the plans and built the course
You will be seeing more of that, Neil, in the ensuing nine courses.
And as a result of this harvest time gap between the two nines, they ended up with some different design influences.
You know, Pete was looking at, before building the back, he was spending time on some McKenzie and Perry Maxwell courses.
