Bandon yardage book

Does anyone have any recent pictures of Bandon Yardage books? All four courses?

I'm looking At getting a custom T.I.N. Box partners yardage book cover for when I head out there, but only if the books will fit.

Are they vertical flipping? Or is It like a side to side book? I couldn't tell from their online pics on their website.

Also, dimensions would be highly appreciated if you have them.

Thanks WRXers. You guys are all great!

Side-by-side book style. One hole on each page.

6.5" H x 3.75" W

Thank you very much!!

FYI, the books come in a (removable) clear plastic cover, which helps keep them dry,... sort of...

I played BD in a monsoon and my yardage book got pretty soaked, but actually dried out fairly nicely.

Does anyone know if the caddies have a "pro" version of the books. Would love to see what a green map for those courses would look like.

Ooooh, I would pay a lot of money for a set of those.... ^^^^^^^^

FYI, I reached out to Vin and he replied (in an appropriately official tone) they were only available to caddies. Any other sources where one might be found/got?

I did the same a while back.

I'm guessing your only chance is to buy one from a former caddie! Lol

I have the caddie book :)

You dog you. How does one go about that? Right connections? Or right price.... Or both? Lol ?

Where you working at? I'm a Minnesotan as well!

Eagle's Landing Golf Club off 371 on your way to Brainerd

Oh nice.

I'm originally from the cities but moved way up north to Thief River Falls. I'm gonna be getting out to Maddens a few times this summer! Also have a buddy with a cabin on Ten Mile in walker so we get out to Tianna too.

Good stuff my man!

Tryna resurrect this. Anyone get a “pro” yardage guide? I’d imagine with the collegiate events possibly there might be more out in the wild. If not if anyone has any of the normal guides, I’ll pay for scans or pictures. Heading out there and see 3/4 books back in stock online but won’t reach my house in time for my trip and can’t guarantee they’ll be in stock in the pro shop when I get there. TIA

I saw that Strakaline had scanned the resort a few years ago, but that’s not even available anymore.

They had "pro" greens books at all the shops when I was there last week. Very detailed maps of the greens, I think they were 40 bucks per course, or something high like that. They were almost too detailed, and I didn't bother to pick them up because it would mess with my brain. (also too spendy for my mediocre putting stroke) It looked like they had plenty of both the hole guides and greens books in stock, I wouldn't worry about them running out.

They have a greens book for each course. $50 each. Kinda stiff, IMO.

My main problem with them is the size of the font is so small, I'd need reading glasses. StrackaLine did the books, and may have them available on their site.

The most recent versions of the yardage books are vertical flip books, allegedly more water resistant than the old ones. They are already out of date, with the recent changes to BD bunkering.

Wow $50! I’d rather 4 putt and enjoy the adventure. I checked out strakaline, love their books, but it links to say to purchase in golf shop. Their books are a bit more detailed than the watered down vertical ones

Does anyone know if they have updated Bandon Dunes yardage books with the recent bunker changes?

I doubt it since they were still working on the changes 2 weeks ago.

No. I have a set of the latest and they have none of the changes from last year or this year. I debated whether to buy a new set when they incorporate the new bunkers and I think I'll just draw them in.

Yardage books? Surely you just Yoda your way around the place after all these years.

Do or do not avoid that bunker: there is no try ;)

Heh. Not so much... I don't have the steel-trap memory that Edaw has for course details. I still have to consult my yardage books and the copious notes I've taken over the years to get around those courses.

Some day, I may attain the muscle memory that I have of my home course, but for now, it's a quick check of the desired landing zone, maybe a little laser and I'm good.

Wonder if the US AM yardage book will be available for purchase
