Claude "Butch" Harmon, Jr. is an American golf instructor and former professional player. He is the son of 1948 Masters Tournament champion Claude Harmon, Sr. and has been in the golf industry since 1965.
Butch Harmon was raised in New Rochelle, New York by Eugene Claude Harmon (1916–89) and Alice Cullen McKee Harmon (1918–70). His father was the head pro at the nearby Winged Foot Golf Club in Mamaroneck. The family also lived part of the year in Florida, when Butch's father served as the winter professional at the Seminole Golf Club. Butch began playing golf from an early age, as did his three younger brothers, Craig, Bill, and Dick (1947-2006), who also all became golf professionals. Butch graduated from Iona Grammar School (1958) and then New Rochelle High School (1962). Butch excelled at all sports, and was a star halfback on the 1961 New Rochelle High School football team that compiled a 5–2–1 record.

One of the most difficult courses i have played till now. A 7347 yard course from the championship tees, being a long hitter I have never played a course so long. It can easily play up to 8000 yards plus with the wind in play.
I have never played a course so long. It can easily play up to 8000 yards plus with the wind in play. Some Par 4's are very short (Driver-lob wedge) whereas some can play insanely long (Driver-rescue).
