I had the opportunity this spring to play Pinehurst #8 in North Carolina with three good friends.  We had a great time and were unsure which course to play since #2 gets all the press.  After asking around and even speaking to the people at Pinehurst they said play 8.  They said Pinehurst #8 is a great track, should not be crowded and is a great course.  They were correct, it was a great track, very challenging and quite beautiful.  Since we played in the springtime it was not crowded or overly expensive compared to #2.  If you ever get to North Carolina for golf, Pinehurst is a must.  Although it is somewhat remote that is part of its charm.  Not to mention great golf, lovely people, excellent service from the staff and exciting history.

Major Confidence

My two cents on last weeks British Open won by South African Louis Oosthuizen.  I find it interesting that regardless of the world ranking it comes down to confidence to win majors. If it was a matter of ranking then Casey and Westwood would have won several already. Even his fellow South African players said that him winning a major was more about his confidence and his "underacheiver" mentality than about talent. If there is anyting we can learn from the past two majors is that there are plenty of guys who have the talent to win but few have the confidence to pull it off. The PGA next month should be interesting
