In
the early 1990's I began writing
for Southern Golf magazine, and
working with Editor and Publisher
Richard "Dick" Morey. Over the
years I did many golf course
articles and had numerous covers
on his magazine. We developed a
great friendship and I was very
sad when in 2000 he decided to
discontinue publication.
The
photograph he used on the
March/April 1997 issue (shown
right) is of Granite Bay in
Sacramento, CA. The Granite Bay
article deals with the design of
the course.
Also
in this issue is the coverage of
the GCSAA's 68th Annual
Convention. I attended along with
Dick. I provided all of the
photos he used as well as some of
the other show coverage,
including an extensive article on
a meeting of golf course
architects. Jack Nicklaus was a
featured speaker, and one of my
photos of him accompanies the
piece.
The
May/June 1996 issue (bottom left)
was taken at the popular
Silverado Country Club and Resort
in Napa, CA. The article dealt
with maintaining the course
during the play and activity
involved with a major
professional
tournament.
The
cover of the November/December
1998 Southern Golf (bottom right)
is a pretty dramatic picture of
the number 7 hole at the new
Coyote Hills Golf Club in
Fullerton, CA.. The story was
about the design of the
course.
