I’ve been playing golf since I was 9. I played junior golf extensively at the local and state level as a teenager growing up in West Hartford, Connecticut, and played on both my high school and college teams. That was about as far as my playing career went, but I never lost my love for the game. I am an avid reader and collector of golf book and enjoy the history of the game and golf architecture. I especially enjoy talking with folks in the golf industry generally – be they club pros, teaching pros, players, golf association executives, architects or industry folks – and that is what we do on this podcast.
