  • On this installment of the RGC Course Vlogs, Erik Anders Lang takes on his new home course, Lions Municipal Golf Course in Austin, TX.
    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.

    "This golf shot is like coming home to find out your house has been robbed and then discovering they took a shit in your kitchen". Had me in stitches.

    Golf - the only sport that can make you so upset that you drop this line "It would be like If you came home and you saw that you had been robbed and then you realize that they also took a shit in your kitchen." Haha this had me rolling.

    As a native Texan after watching you play beautiful courses with what appears
    as easy, then playing local courses like you did in this video. It really encouraged me that maybe I am not so horrible and Texas just has a lot of really tough courses. 😂

    Welcome to town!!! Muny always kicks me in the teeth and the greens can be tough to read because most of the holes slope towards the lake. Your 2 putt on 6 that you though that was downhill is actually more uphill since you were putting away from Lake Austin.

  • @holmer9413
    @holmer9413 3 года назад

    Hey we've all been there. But then there are days like yesterday where I started off with eagles on both the first two holes thanks to a newly tweaked 3 hybrid and two very short par 4's (the course is in a Senior community and is only 4100 yards). Still, I had easy putts from 200 yards out and that's a great way to start any day. Somedays we jump right into a great game, sometimes we start slow and our game sneaks up on us later, and sometimes it says not today fool. That's golf. Showing the bad days is just as important as showing the great ones. And sometimes, it's more entertaining. 😂 I certainly see myself in many of the mistakes you made out there that day.

Can't tell you how many times I've come into 16 a couple over ready to break 80 and go triple double double or something stupid. tough course for a draw hitter, and not easy around the greens. Beautiful location, lots of great people to play with, but tough course for me
