Golf Capital of the World?

193 of 365

4th Hole (317 yards - white tees) overlooking the Bristol Hills (probably 25 miles away)
Woodcliff Golf Course
Fairport, NY

I've heard that there are more golf courses per capita here than in any other place in the world.
I don't know if this is true or not but there are 50 courses (public and private) within 25 miles of my town.
There are actually 23 courses within 10 miles! Rochester has the Wegmans LPGA Championship every year
and this year is also hosting the PGA Championship. If you watch it on TV, think of me as I'm only a few miles away!

Great shot. I never realized how hilly it is there.

Nice catch and bit of trivia.

You must have a lot of Golf Courses around you...

An interesting perspective and effect with this focal length. I was the only non-Golfer in my family. :)

Of course Florida would argue with you about "More golf courses." I have no idea who would win that one ...... but this is a teriffic shot!

Great composition. Those homes look awfully close - I wonder how often windows get broken..

Amazing number of golf courses in such a small location! The mountains are beautiful in the background!

Never could get my head around this game. I would rather watch grass grow.
