Clifton Park Golf Course, Baltimore, Course #13, June 8, 2026
Bill, Rick and I ventured into Baltimore to play Clifton Park. The land was once owned by Johns Hopkins and his “summer house” mansion still graces the park adjacent to the golf clubhouse.

Putting: At War With My Mind
Probably my first post involving introspection. I’ve played golf off and on for 40 years, having recently started up again after an almost ten year hiatus. Looking back, work was the primary reason I gave for not playing but the reality is that the yips made it so that I didn’t try hard to find…
