In 2018, the first ever FOG (Friends of Golfdom) meeting at No. 6 green was a huge success. We had about 25 different people stop by to say hi. We’ll take a shot at all the identifications, correct us if any are wrong… In this photo we’ve got a mix of Florida and New Jersey guys… Jim Rattigan, Plant Food Co.; Tyler Otero, North Jersey CC; Russ Harris, Galloping Hills GC; Rob Johnson; Nate Watkin, Seagate CC; Deron Zendt; Steve Yager, Lost City GC; Ryan Swilley, Gulf Stream GC; and Brian Birney, the Club at Admiral’s Cove.
