Fishers Island, Yeamans Hall, Augusta National, Central Park, Stanford University, Seth Raynor, Alister Mackenzie, the Biltmore Estate, what on earth could all of these things have in common? The answer is one of the great American landscape architects, Frederick Law Olmsted.

While better known for the college campuses and public works projects he would design, Olmsted was also involved with laying out the grounds and property alignment for many famous golf courses and facilities like the ones mentioned above... tune in to the episode to learn more!

Norman Macbeth v Perry Maxwell. NC vs CA. LA vs Winston. Creek vs Creek.

The common thread on those two awesome collections of houses is the usage of a single creek throughout the property. Never seen another golf course in the states get the kind of mileage out of a single creek like these two do which makes it fun to pit the two against each other in the all out brawl that is House Theory Thursday.

Enjoy the episode and keep the conversation going with us at the links down below!

Peace, Love, and Happy New Years!

Welcome to The Tie, Jubal Early. Jubal was meant to be our 3rd man on The Tie before work life got in the way, which leads into todays topic of golf from the cubicle. Jubal was a 2 year captain and 4 year letter winner at Bucknell but now most of his golf has to come from his imagination due to the demands of a job in private equity. We break down how that has affected his relationship with game in both good and bad ways

Fun chat that I think will be very relatable for many people in The Tie community. Hope you all enjoy!

A young face in the GCA space, Gray Carlton is a cool look into what some of the younger generation of the GCA industry thinks like. 

Fun to hear from someone who has such a fresh outlook on architecture and has grown up in the current renaissance we're seeing in the industry. Gray and Walker talk Lido, Renaissance Golf, getting into GCA as a young person, and much more. Already having spent time with some great architects on really neat projects, Gray has a bright future and will be a fun name to track going forth. This won't be the last time you hear from Gray at The Tie, so lookout for more with him down the road.

Cheers,

Let's run one this one back. Our first MBM on house theory didn't go quite as we had hoped, so we're going at it again to better communicate what on earth we're talking about when we liken golf holes and courses so much to this concept of "house theory." I think this one went a bit better so hopefully after this episode there is no confusion as to what this means. Remember, its Trigonometry, not calculus.

Excited for the timing of this episode as it will lead us into our new series "House Theory Thursday" which we will be bringing to you every other week where we will compare to different golf courses based on House Theory. Going to a be a blast. 

We're running to the finish line of this year before kicking it up even more in 2022. We appreciate everyone being along for the ride!

Cheers,
