We stopped at Tom&#8217;s, then crossed the Y Bridge on our way out of town. The reason we were in town, to begin, started with one of the traditional muck-ups that plague our annual golf trips: our Sunday course was busy with club championship, so it shifted to the previous Tuesday. That compelled us to move Saturday&#8217;s course to Sunday, and eliminate the original Tuesday course. Still with me? Good. How to get to Clevelandia from Columbus? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zanesvillecc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Zanesville Country Club<\/strong><\/a>, of course.<\/p>\n<p>The thing about ZCC is, you need to identify the Mikes. There&#8217;s Mike Kaido, the General Manager. Then, there&#8217;s Mike Durant, the PGA professional. Finally, there&#8217;s Mike Bennett, and he&#8217;s not an employee, but he IS the nucleus of this story. Mike Bennett decided to resolve, once and for all time, the lineage of the near 7000-yard course that has hosted many of the game&#8217;s greats, along with some of Ohio&#8217;s most important events. Two names were in contention for authorship of the course&#8217;s routing and build. The first was the itinerant Scotsman, Donald J. Ross, jr., and his man-in-the-field, Walter Hatch. The second was the first golfer to win both the US Amateur and US Open, Charles &#8220;Chick&#8221; Evans, for whom the Western Golf Association&#8217;s Evans Scholars program is named.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32213 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/buffalogolfer.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/370A1604-Medium.jpg?resize=300%2C247\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/buffalogolfer.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/370A1604-Medium.jpg?resize=300%2C247&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/buffalogolfer.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/370A1604-Medium.jpg?resize=768%2C632&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/buffalogolfer.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/370A1604-Medium.jpg?resize=610%2C502&amp;ssl=1 610w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/buffalogolfer.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/370A1604-Medium.jpg?resize=24%2C20&amp;ssl=1 24w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/buffalogolfer.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/370A1604-Medium.jpg?resize=36%2C30&amp;ssl=1 36w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/buffalogolfer.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/370A1604-Medium.jpg?resize=48%2C39&amp;ssl=1 48w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/buffalogolfer.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/370A1604-Medium.jpg?w=934&amp;ssl=1 934w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">We knew that our vagabond trio would be accompanied by one of the Mikes, but I could not identify which one, as I had not read the emails all that closely. Fortunately for us, as we pulled into the lot, we caught a glimpse of a tall fellow, flanked by two employees, standing look-out at the clubhouse. He yodeled across the lot &#8220;Are these my Buffalo boys?&#8221; and we knew that we had our man. We&#8217;re really not sure to this day, what Mike Bennett does for a living, nor do we much care. Our five hours with him (4:15 on the course and :45 on the patio) were informative, enjoyable, and enlightening.<\/p>\n<p>Mike Bennett, as far as we can ascertain, is not a professional author. He enlisted a local college professor to serve as his editor. By the looks of the book, however, you&#8217;d never know that this was his first go-round. Bennett consulted experts from Ross restorationist Tyler Rae, to the Tufts archives in Pinehurst, to the Donald Ross Society, stopping short of holding a seance with the great man himself.<\/p>\n<p>I knew that the other purchase, besides a logo ball, that I would make in the shop once managed by Paul Thomas (Justin&#8217;s grandpap) was the Mike Bennett book. You cannot find it anywhere else. It&#8217;s not on Amazon, nor Abebooks. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zanesvillecc.com\/contact\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>If you call or email the shop<\/strong><\/a>, however, I&#8217;m sure that they will ship one to you. For $65 plus shipping, it&#8217;s a solid addition to your golf room, golf shelf, library, or coffee table. You&#8217;ll enjoy the read, and you may even plan a trip to the Buckeye state. Zanesville Country Club will open its doors and arms to you, I promise.<\/p>\n<p>I won&#8217;t spoil the read with the reveal.\u00a0<em>Searching for Donald Ross<\/em> is a valuable addition to the Ross catalogue, and it may spawn a new generation of researchers, excited to conduct their own investigation into their club or course&#8217;s genesis. That&#8217;s a good thing. For now, enjoy some images that I took of Zanesville.<\/p>\n<p class=\"jetpack-slideshow-noscript robots-nocontent\">This slideshow requires JavaScript.<\/p><div id=\"gallery-32210-1-slideshow\" class=\"jetpack-slideshow-window jetpack-slideshow jetpack-slideshow-black\" data-trans=\"fade\" data-autostart=\"1\" data-gallery=\"[{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/buffalogolfer.com\\\/wordpress\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/08\\\/370A1642-Medium.jpg?fit=1024%2C683\\u0026ssl=1&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;32212&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;370A1642 (Medium)&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/buffalogolfer.com\\\/wordpress\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/08\\\/370A1382-Medium.jpg?fit=1024%2C683\\u0026ssl=1&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;32220&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;370A1382 (Medium)&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/buffalogolfer.com\\\/wordpress\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/08\\\/370A1576-Medium.jpg?fit=1024%2C683\\u0026ssl=1&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;32215&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;370A1576 (Medium)&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/buffalogolfer.com\\\/wordpress\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/08\\\/370A1509-Medium.jpg?fit=1024%2C683\\u0026ssl=1&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;32218&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;370A1509 (Medium)&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/buffalogolfer.com\\\/wordpress\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/08\\\/370A1438-Medium.jpg?fit=1024%2C683\\u0026ssl=1&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;32219&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;370A1438 (Medium)&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/buffalogolfer.com\\\/wordpress\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/08\\\/370A1571-Medium.jpg?fit=1024%2C683\\u0026ssl=1&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;32216&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;370A1571 (Medium)&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/buffalogolfer.com\\\/wordpress\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/08\\\/370A1534-Medium.jpg?fit=1024%2C683\\u0026ssl=1&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;32217&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;370A1534 (Medium)&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;},{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i0.wp.com\\\/buffalogolfer.com\\\/wordpress\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/08\\\/370A1656-Medium.jpg?fit=1024%2C601\\u0026ssl=1&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;32211&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;370A1656 (Medium)&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;itemprop&quot;:&quot;image&quot;}]\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\"><\/div>\n<span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For those outside the golf world, and for many of its denizens, Zanesville, Ohio, is known for its artistic history, its Y Bridge, and the first letter of its name.
