Many of you deep in the golf world have heard of Quinn Thompson- some of you have never heard of him at all. Whether one or the other, you probably don't know a lot about the man. 

Quinn is a Chicago kid, who found the game by sneaking onto courses near home and hitting golf balls with his friends on the way to school. 

After finding an ad in the paper while at URI, he stumbled upon a grow-in job where he met Jeff Bradley, widely regarded as the bunker guru. Quinn made a good impression, and the rest is history. 

Today, Quinn leads his own projects throughout Japan, and consults some in England, building artistic bunkers everywhere he goes. As you'll learn, he's one of a kind- a savant in regard to his passions- and widely talented. 

Hope you enjoy this interview today with a man who adds so much flare to our game. His work is as important as any great artist, who keep us sane, and remind us that there is far more than function and engineering. 

With love, 

The Tie Guys

What a treat to get to speak with Wright Thompson today about his work, life, and passions.

Wright and I dive into what it is about sports that make it such a humanizing thing to write about and make them such an amazing platform for understanding people and communicating who they are. We talk about about his personal travels and why that has been such an amazing piece of his job. What he has picked up from different places around the world, some great insight into how to eat at The Masters, and much more.

Hope you all enjoy this one as much as I enjoyed researching Wright and speaking with him.

Thanks for the support as always.

Cheers,

Heavy weight battle coming at you today. These are a couple courses that I think everyone recognizes to be great, but in our opinion, they are better than that. Truly world class layouts, these two can go toe to toe with any course in the world and also can be enjoyed by just about any level of player.

Shotmaking, decisions vs execution, half pars, unique features, ideal playing conditions, and much more. We hope this episode excites you all as much as it excited us to talk about.

Be with us tomorrow for an awesome interview with Wright Thompson from ESPN!

Hello everyone- 

Very excited to share this chat between Mitch and Walker. Here at The Tie Podcast, we try to being you quality content related to the culture of the game, golf course architecture, and competition. This episode with Mitch, we get a tasting platter of the whole lot. A cornucopia of golf related chatter. 

Walker and Mitch go back and forth and simply discuss the past (mainly golf course architecture), present (public golf, accessibility, quality of experience), and future (what's important for the future of our game) in the golf world. 

This podcast has certainly inspired some more "off the cuff" podcasts in the not-too-distant future. 

Cheers and much love to our strong community,

Tie Guys

It has been said that its a game of misses... today we chat about how to think about misses, why its important to recognize that you probably are going to miss - to some degree - and of course, where are YOU missing.

Although there is usually a best miss, that may not be the best miss for you based on your short game preferences. Give it a listen and learn a thing or two and maybe have a chuckle or two while you're at it.

Cheers,

- The Tie Guys
