Big Randy and Neil discuss the Camargo Club located outside Cincinnati, OH. The Camargo Club is a 1927 Seth Raynor design that features arguable the best collection of Par 3s in the world. Like other Raynor or his mentor C.B. Macdonald designs, The Camargo Club features template holes including the Redan, Eden, Short and Biarritz. Tom Doak and Renaissance Golf completed a restoration of the course in the early 2000's focusing mostly on greens and bunkers which were changed in the last 80s. It is an absolute must play if you are ever afforded the opportunity!
