Golf Smarter Mulligans

22: Golf Course architects aren't necessarily great golfers which means they have compassion for the issues that face recreational golfers like us. But they all want to create great golf venues that challenge and please golfers of all skill levels. Our guest is architect Brian Silva on the various elements and features that are incorporated into a golf course design. During the conversation, Brian refers to “Redan” features, which was a new term for me, so I misunderstood it as the famous sculptor “Rodin”. But here’s the actual definition from Wikipedia: “a Redan hole has a green which slopes downwards and away from the point of entrance, typically the front right portion of the green. Links golf is played on the ground as much as in the air and, consequently, the green slopes away from the golfer playing to the green from the tee or fairway.”

This time we meet the founder of Bird Golf Academy, Jay Ewing who provides insights to Carey’s work and also shares a couple of great tips for better putting and golf.

This time around we go to the first of two parts with Tony discussing tips, insights, and strategies on how to be more consistent with each golf club in your bag. In this episode we explore improvements with your putter, 8 iron, and lob wedge. We’ve scheduled to have him come back next week to discuss more wedges, long irons, hybrids, fairway metals, and drivers.

Terry Rowles, a former apprentice of David Leadbetter, brought the mountain to Mohammed. Instead of running a traditional business of giving lessons at a golf course, country club, or driving range, Terry opened an instructional studio with all the bells and whistles available to him and opened up a space in an office building right in the heart of San Francisco’s Financial District.
