  • On this installment of the RGC Course Vlogs, Erik Anders Lang takes on his new home course, Lions Municipal Golf Course in Austin, TX. The front 9 was rocky. Will he recover?
    Known locally as “Muny,” Lions is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was Austin’s first public golf course, and was the first golf course to racially integrate south of the Mason-Dixon. It was added to the list of 11 Most Endangered Historic Places by the National Trust of Historic Preservation in 2017.

    I really do want to thank you for letting us be apart of such an awful experience for you. I enjoy your course vlogs so much, I've been missing them so this is some much needed medicine. So thank you for letting your pain bring me some joy.

    I cant tell you how much i enjoy the course vlog series, not only do they keep me buckled over laughing cause we all can relate, but I strive to adopt rule 17b like you have my dude. Admire your spirit and drive for connecting people thru golf. Ive been a friend of Bill's about the same time you have and I just love seeing the success of others who came from similar back stories. All the best my guy you deserve it

    Lions eats my lunch quite often. Double bogeyed 16&17 the other day. Headed into 18 with an 82 and ended up tripling! Course looks easy at a glance but will bite. Love this place!

    EAL your course vlogs are great. Playing on camera is one thing, but playing on camera and posting a round you’re not fond of is another thing. The best thing about golf is it makes you vulnerable and you either execute or don’t. But either way it’s a great fucking day.
