XXIX Review of "Bally Bandon Sheep Ranch"

BALLY BANDON SHEEP RANCH, Bandon, Oregon: The only "gawf" course on the review list, it actually used to be manicured by sheep. Bring your gutta percha and use a brassie on the greens (they are fuzzy-not quick). The course is built on the windiest Pacific coastal cliffs in Oregon (fact) and has only 12 greens. Find your way around to 18 scores on this cross-country course by using the same greens several times from different tees. What ambiance! It's a great experience. "Caddy Shack" weather happens here, but not much lightning. For traditionalists, it's a private course available by special arrangement only. No more clues. NO COURSE RATING (very tough). COST: About $100 (daily fee) WALKING ONLY. Closed in summer due to no irrigation. Open as dictated by nature.
