Dogs – all of the dogs.

Chicken Fried by Zac Brown Band. Or Yeah! by Usher.

Jason MacPhee's Picks

🏖️ Beach Picks and Drinks


Beach Pick: Bunker behind the green on #8 at Lost Creek

It probably won’t shock you, given my lack of pigment and soul, that beach is not my job, and it’s definitely not a hobby I partake in. That said, I’ve spent a tremendous amount of time in the sand this summer… just not the kind with waves.

My most visited “beach”? The bunker behind the green on #8 at Lost Creek. I didn’t choose it, it chose me.

The reason? Triple Bogey Azalea. A take on the unofficial Masters drink: vodka, pineapple, and lemon in one dangerously refreshing mix. It’s perfect for staying “hydrated” while you hunt for your golf ball, or one you can claim is yours. 

Wine lovers, fear not, I’ll be back on my Lambrusco soapbox next month.
