That’s practically a pitch-and-putt course by today’s standards, but I doubt that many will walk off the 18th green wishing for more length. For starters, it plays just 6,500 yards from the tips. That’s fitting, because Tot Hill Farm isn’t your average golf course. Ask anyone who’s played there and you won’t get a tepid opinion – the consensus is that you may love Tot Hill Farm or you may hate it, but you aren’t likely to forget it any time soon. Voted the 7th hardest course in America in 2007, Golf Digest gave it 4.5 stars in 20 and named it to their coveted list of Best Places to Play in 2010. I don’t know if these two gentlemen ever met, but after a day at Tot Hill Farm I’m positive that Mike Stranz and Dirty Harry share a philosophy: “A man’s got to know his limitations.” What’s important is the connection between “Cowboy” Mike Stranz and Clint “Dirty Harry” Eastwood.
Thanks for playing, you can now forget that I ever mentioned Kevin Bacon. There’s a picture in the clubhouse at Tot Hill Farm of Mike Stranz sitting on a horse, wearing a cowboy hat, as he surveys the property that would eventually become Tot Hill Farm.Clint Eastwood got his start playing cowboy Rowdy Yates in Rawhide.Kevin Bacon was directed by Clint Eastwood in “Mystic River”.
I think that I can connect Kevin Bacon, star of Footloose, to Mike Stranz, designer of Tot Hill Farm in Asheboro, North Carolina: Since you’re using the Internet to read this I’m sure you’re familiar with the game “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon”, where you see how quickly can you connect Kevin Bacon to any other actor in the world.
