Have You A Suggested Name for a Golf Hole .... at North Ridge Country Club, Raleigh NC ....? Naming of Golf Holes Do you have any comment about naming of golf holes? Some courses have done so - and when playing such a course I sometimes wonder "What criteria was used in coming up with a golf hole name - and, who decides what the name should be"? Is another part of this matter: Does a golf course "deserve" to have a "right" to name its holes? Is the course worthy of doing that? Or, for that matter: Is there any purpose of having names for a golf hole? Well, to me, it is purely a matter of "fun". So, now that North Ridge Country Club is more than 40-years old... perhaps, if age is deemed part of any golf-hole-naming criteria, what are some names of golf holes at North Ridge you might recommend? In 1997 I came up with some names; many of which are shown below - just to get things started. Votes are starting to come in, now, - and, names shown are "current leading in votes" as of June 12, 2011. For ties: I (the site Webmaster) make the final decision of names! The individual golf hole Web page linked-to below shows the names/votes that have come in.
