I don’t understand the anger about the golf ball roll back. It will make no difference whatsoever to the average golfer and puts golf back on a path of sustainability. It will also help bring back certain skills in the pro game that have been eradicated over the past 2 decades.

There’s a lot of arguments to consider with this roll back, many of which we will only be decided with time. As individuals we all have biases to what we think and as such we need a governing body to make decisions on our behalf for the greater good. As much as it’s easy to hate

The course conditions we enjoy today depend on highly specialized (and very expensive) equipment. Things have come a long way since the days when sheep and rabbits handled the mowing.

A thing everyone except for Mike Clayton doesn't talk about enough: the golf world outside of the U.S. was rolled back in the late 1970s. Evidently the game survived.

Select the cheapest trees you can find. Don’t worry about how big trees will be in the future. If you think a hole is too easy, plant trees to fix it. For these and other great tips on how to ruin a golf course with trees 👇 #GSRrewind

Golfers may like the look of lush green grass, but do they know the downsides of this aesthetic? Lush turf requires a lot of resources and doesn’t necessarily deliver the best playability #GSRrewind 👇

I post this in the aftermath of a presentation we delivered to the Donald Ross Society. A comment came from the audience that they didn’t see these dunes on many of his courses. A great example of how we can’t pigeon hole Ross into a “style” of golf design.

Essex County Club is widely regarded as the first great course built by the prolific Donald Ross. And it’s arguably his finest work. Of his 400+ courses, Ross’s best designs tend to be the places he spent the most time. He lived on the course at ECC for four years and worked on
