“This occurred on hole 5 here at the Crosby Country Club,”\u00a0Dillon Loper, the head coach of the Divide County High School<\/a> team, which hosted the event, casually told OutKick via email.<\/p>\n Playing golf in this remote part of North Dakota \u2014 the Canadian border is one farm field north of the golf course \u2014 isn’t for the faint of heart. Loper says that two-hour rides to play in golf tournaments are common while three- to 3\u00bd-hour rides aren’t out of the question.<\/p>\n And then there’s the weather. Between wind, snow, cold and even red flag fire warnings, getting out on the course can be tricky.<\/p>\n “The thing about these small rural areas is there is no one to call when there are issues, etc. at the golf course,” Crosby resident Grant Haugland told OutKick in 2022. “Bridge gets damaged in the wind at the course? Get 8-10 farmers, a couple Bobcats, some power tools and get it fixed. Out in these rural areas, everyone knows everyone, and you band together to help out wherever there is a need.”<\/p>\n CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP<\/p>\n Crosby, North Dakota locals rebuild a bridge at the Crosby Country Club in 2022 after winter storms caused damage. (Grant Haugland \/ OutKick)<\/p>\n Next up for the Crosby team is a trip to the super regionals and a three-hour ride to play Bully Pulpit, a golf course that bills itself as “chiseled out of the North Dakota Badlands.” In its latest public course rankings, USA Today has Bully Pulpit No. 3<\/a>, ahead of such places as Pebble Beach, French Lick and The Cardinal in Plymouth, Michigan.<\/p>\n Just a heads up, boys, elk and bison are common visitors to the Bully Pulpit course.<\/p>\n Joe Kinsey is the Senior Director of Content of OutKick.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"How am I supposed to chip with that going on, Doug?
