9 other places in golf that need a ‘WARNING’ sign like Bethpage Black’s

May 14, 2019

The ominous WARNING sign behind the 1st tee at Bethpage Black was not only a stroke of marketing genius but also … necessary. Because as the placard rightly points out, the mighty Black Course ain’t for everybody. It’s long, hard, and mean. After 18 holes, you’ll feel like you just went the distance with Conor McGregor.

Which got us thinking: What other golf danger zones are in need of such a sign? Plenty! Here are nine more golfy locations where management should advise their clientele to proceed with extreme caution.
