1931 (Click picture to enlarge)
A - Clubhouse has not been built yet.
B - Bobby Jones told head professional George Jacobus that this bunker that no longer exists was the inspiration for the front bunker on #10 at Augusta National Golf Club.
C - Note the continuous bunkers around the left side of 3E green. This is a common theme in this picture.
D - One large bunker right of 7E green. Later this will become two bunkers and later on one sand bunker and one grass bunker.
E - The clock has not been built yet.
F - The two bunkers right of 1C green were a single bunker in 1931.
G - Note the width of the fairway past the fairway bunker on 7C.
H - Note the single snake-like bunker wrapping from the front of the green, down the right side and then to the back of 8C green. This was partially restored in 2005.
I - Note the size and lack of trees along 1W and 9W.
J - The greenside bunkers wrapped around the entire front approach of 2W green.
K - Note the single fairway bunker connecting 4W and 5W fairways. We believe this was eliminated early on for drainage reasons. This area often floods and the lowest area on West runs right through the middle of this old bunker.
L - Note the solitary front bunker in front of 6W green. Today, there are two.
M - Saddle River Golf Club, now Paramus Golf Club.
