The Stryker Beach Golf Course is a private golf course located in Brooklyn of the Answer The Call universe.
History
A trio of golfers and their caddy was attacked the ghost of a golfer during their tee-time. Ern's golf ball floated in mid-air then the ghost manifested and rained balls on them. His friend stated a mulligan wasn't being declared and yelled for someone to call the Ghostbusters. Abby Yates, Jillian Holtzmann, and Patty Tolan responded. Upon entering a shop on the course, Holtzmann yelled she heard someone had a problem with their balls then bet anyone $20 she could make an old man in the corner fall over. An employee approached the team and informed them the ghost was out on the 13th green. Abby reminded everyone she wanted to trap the ghost to study then her P.K.E. Meter picked it up. To her dismay, Holtzmann shredded the ghost with the Ghost Chipper. She insisted the readings were too skewed to be a decent test subject. The team left the course to deal with three more calls.
