Transcript

So I'm always on the hunt for a great local Muni, and the course I played last weekend had all the key ingredients. First up, the clubhouse. It was big. It was old. It had all these pictures of how the course used to look back in the day, and it had a phenomenal bar bonus points for the functioning payphone on the wall. And then once you got out on the course, better wall, and then once you got out on the course, every hole had a sign with the layout and each one had a name. Sometimes the name made sense, sometimes you had no idea how they got there. On top of that, each hole had a bench which some would say is a lost art these days. And I'd say every other hole, they even have a covered set of benches which we love. The turn shack, also iconic. $7 meatball sub. Kinda wish I tried that while I was there. Other random note, great munis tend to be right next to cemeteries. Good, love rank in those. But the crown jewel of this place was the gigantic, maybe 12 foot tall periscope on the ninth hole to help you get a look at this blind 220 yard par three. And for those of you that are curious, this is Gannon Municipal Golf Course about thirty minutes north of Boston. Highly recommend if you want a delightful day at a course with some real character. 7.4 out of 10 in the Eden app.
