BFBH Cup | Boys From Back Home Cup
BFBH Cup 2025
2025 Cup Foreword
The BFBH Cup is entering the 5th year of a tradition. The Boys are bringing it back to Boyne and looking to get the original crew together for the first time ever.
Venue
We're heading back to Boyne for a third straight year. The 11 courses Boyne has to offer combined with the price and lodging, it can't be beat. Trust me, I've looked. There's no better deal in the state of Michigan, possibly the country. Yes, I'm high and mighty on MI golf.
The Boys
We're looking to get the original crew together for the first time ever. That's right. Not even in the first year, did we have the original 12. Every year since we expanded to 12, we've had an alternate substitute. That alternate has been Jake for the last 3 years. We have his number on speed dial. He helped bring home 2 winning seasons for the Green Team. His presence has been an integral part of the cups success. Thank you.
Handicaps
Another competitive year in 2024 thanks to our boys using handicaps. We'll see where the handicaps go this year, but I don't anticipate major changes from the squad. Except Dan, he predicts he'll drop his 33 handicap to a 12 in 2025. You better get practicing Danny Dimes.
Predictions
The cup will come down to the singles matches, Doon Brae, the par 3 course, will be awesome and someone will get a hole-in-one.
Scoring
After Green's victory in 2024, they only needs 13.5 points to retain and cup and Blue needs 14 points to take it back.

Preserve/Links at Bay Harbor
From Forest to Shore
Settled into the hardwoods that hug the shores of Lake Michigan, The Preserve is nothing short of a sanctuary. Designed by Arthur Hills, the course winds its way through a classic northern Michigan landscape filled with wildlife. The sounds of breaking waves are a constant companion, with the course finishing in dramatic fashion — a spectacular par-3 situated on the Lake Michigan shoreline.
Taking its lead from the dramatic courses on Ireland's North Atlantic coastline, The Links is situated on the beautiful Lake Michigan shore, with miles of uninterrupted lakefront views. Accented by towering bluffs and windblown dunes, The Links 9 demonstrates Arthur Hills design at its finest, merging the course's unique topography with the native environment to highlight golf as both a sport — and a lifestyle.
Crooked Tree Golf Club
The fairways of Crooked Tree's first nine holes are lined by old-growth trees, creating stunning sightlines from one hole to the next. The course is characterized by undulating greens that require careful, consistent putts for par.
The Heather
The Heather was Named 2019 National Course of the Year and 2018 Michigan Golf Course Of The Year.
It's not hype. It's not pretense. It's a fact: The Heather has earned its reputation as one of the finest championship courses in the entire United States. Bearing all the markings of its legendary designer, this Robert Trent Jones, Sr. course has tested the finest names in the game since 1966, playing host to Michigan Amateurs, AJGA Championships, the Michigan State Pro-Am, and The Celebrity Tour.
The Heather has been named the 2018 Golf Course of the Year by the Michigan Golf Course Association (MGCA).
The Heather has also been awarded the 2019 National Golf Course of the Year by the National Golf Course Owners Association (NGCOA).
Arthur Hills
A signature course that lives up to the legendary reputation of its namesake, the Arthur Hills course is widely recognized as one of the finest in Michigan - and a bucket list essential for avid golfers, both regionally and throughout the U.S. With its wide, bunker-dotted fairways, narrowing approaches and fascinating greens, this scenic course provides excellent playability for golfers of all abilities.
