Money Talks

It is really to bad that we will never be able to play this course you are describing. Living in Utah has its ups and downs, this is a down. Its Utah land, and just because you have money, more than most of us do, does that give you the right to take Utah land from us.
Money talks, congrats to the 15 Utah people that get to enjoy this beautiful part of OUR state.

NEEDLE

Another mindless waste of resources.

So, is this story an affirmation that size matters?

My Hummer's bigger than your Navigator?

Finally, it's strange that you would needle Obama, yet never "touch" Bush, the annointed one.

Your transparency is showing.

Why

Why write this story, and describe such a beautiful place to play golf. There are only 15 people who care.

What Happened to Sorenson?

I thought Sorenson was the golf writer? It's one thing to talk about the qualities of a course. It's another to compare it to other courses you've never played. I'll put the renewal of my D News subscription on the line that says you haven't played half the courses you bashed.

Pick up you kickback from Victory Ranch and stick to sports that you've actually had some experience, especially now that the D News will be giving me a free year subscription.

Great column Dick. Victory Ranch is an amazing piece of property made beautiful by one of the world's best golf course designers.

Whether you can afford to live there or not, or if you are a golfer or not, the Victory Ranch green space now adds to everyone's quality of life.

As one who lives in the middle of miles of sidewalks and driveways - its a pleasure to see beautiful landscaped green space - even if I can't afford the price of a lot.

Utah is lucky to have the golf courses you mentioned, created by the very best course designers in the world. I have played each one (without living on any of them) and Victory Ranch is sure to join the list of Utah's very best - if not THE BEST.

Thanks Dick Harmon!

Wow. A story about a golf course that caters to 15 people in the entire state of Utah.

Picasso? Meaning abstract? Or extremely expensive?

question

Was this a column or a paid-for advertisement intended to sell lots? It reads like a paid advertisement. It certainly wasn't an objective column, but then Harmon has never been accused of being objective. Bet he didn't pay to play.

Pfft...

Yea, it's too bad I can't play there... But there are a lot of things in this state I can't do. I guess the Jazz should find another state, cause I can't afford season tickets.

Well played Mr Harmon

Fazio

Tom Fazio is the best course designer in the world, and Glenwild is the best golf course in Utah, by far.

Maybe a great course

Maybe Victory is a great course, but to rip on those who own memberships at Utah's other fine courses was a bad choice of how to emphasize that you enjoyed your day of free golf at Victory.

Tin Cup

Nobody really cares to hear about a golf course 15 people will be playing... Great courses that are available to the masses, are what we wanna hear about.. But it's ok, cuz by next year we wont hear of this course again... Nobody talks about places they cannot go... not too often, that is. Kinda like going The Moon for that matter..Glorify the few that go there, then never hear think much of it afterwords.. So enjoy Bushwood, ya Snobs!
