Ep 82: Robert Hunter's The Links with Mike Clayton

The ISG Pod Book Club is back and this episode is without doubt the most requested to date. In the wake of the exceedingly popular Spirit of St Andrews episode, many listeners asked that Robert Hunter's The Links go under the microscope and now here it is. This 1926 classic is one of the most important books ever written on golf course architecture and with the help of special guest Mike Clayton we delve into what makes it a must read for any golf course enthusiast. Along the way discussion diverges to the state of the modern game, what makes the Old Course so special, the most misunderstood aspect of a course being 'playable for all' and countless other topics as well.
