I love to keep in tune with happenings in the Home of Golf, St. Andrews.  Today the Old Course began reconstruction of the famous Shell Bunker face.  Shell Bunker is a giant bunker which guards the 7th green.

What the officials at the Old Course forgot to mention is why they’re rebuilding.  While my pals and I were in St. Andrews in July, my buddy Shanego spent so much time in Shell Bunker that he apparently wore out the face!

    Yes poor Shanego did get very comfortable in Shell over those two rounds on the Old Course.
