In this episode of the National Links Trust Podcast, we're joined by Ryan Book AKA @BethpageBlackMetal on Instagram. Ryan's account is one of the most interesting in golf as he shares golf course construction and architecture updates from projects big and small around the country. It is a definitive source for all things golf development, and we highly recommend you follow it if you haven't already.

In this interview, Ryan and National Links Trust co-founder, Will Smith, discuss trends in public and municipal golf development, the importance of accessibility to the game, and Ryan's favorite munis around New York City, where he grew to love the game, and his home state of Ohio.
