Fore! Gone Minnesota's Lost Golf Courses

With the October 1st announcement of the Sawmill Golf Course closing in Stillwater, I thought I would recommend a link about a book that is attempting to get published about the lost golf courses in Minnesota's history.

Joe Bissen has been researching the history of courses in Minnesota lost to time.  He is trying to raise money with a kickstarter campaign to get his book published. 

He has been working in collaborations with Peter Wong, one of the most amazing photographers.  Peter has done a lot of great golf photography, along with just being generally awesome in his other work too.

I love the history of golf.  Fields to Fairways, is an especially great read about the more storied courses in Minnesota.  I find it fascinating.  If you do too, check out his Kickstarter page:
