  • Episode 152: Golf's Dress Code Debate - From Tweed to Hoodies - The Evolution of Golf Attire

    Episode 152: Golf's Dress Code Debate - From Tweed to Hoodies - The Evolution of Golf Attire
    Dec 9 2025
    Before the main event, Jeff and Scott catch up on a busy couple of weeks in golf, covering the Australian Open, the Hero World Challenge, Q-Schools, and the upcoming Grant Thornton Invitational. Then, we take a look at the enduring debate: The Golf Dress Code. We trace the journey of golf clothing from the heavy tweed and corseted outfits of the 19th century—a uniform of the elite—to the performance polo shirt popularized by Arnold Palmer. We analyze the Public vs. Private course divide, discuss the high-profile acceptance of hoodies on the PGA Tour, and revisit the controversial 2017 LPGA dress code tightening. Finally, we forecast the future: high-tech fabrics, gender-neutral designs, and the demand for sustainable golf wear. Is it time to abolish all dress codes in the name of growing the game?

  • Episode 151: Golf Course Design - Likes and Dislikes

    Episode 151: Golf Course Design - Likes and Dislikes
    Nov 27 2025
    In this episode, we dive into the endlessly debated world of golf course design—breaking down the features golfers love, hate, and love to argue about. From there, we split the show into a “Front 9” and “Back 9,” exploring some of golf architecture’s most fascinating topics. On the Front 9, we tackle classic vs. modern design philosophies, bunkering styles, and the ongoing debate between restoring historic courses and renovating them for today’s game. Using courses we've played, we share personal examples that highlight why certain design choices resonate with us. On the Back 9, we shift to strategic attributes and player experience—from the best template holes to the fairness of wild green complexes, the purpose of water hazards, and what makes a routing truly memorable. We dig into walkability, playability vs. difficulty, the value of the ground game, and what defines a great finishing stretch. To wrap up, we share some of our all-time favorite courses we’ve played—like Panmure, North Berwick, Tobacco Road, and Pinehurst—and dream out loud about the bucket-list courses we hope to experience one day, including Cypress Point, St. Andrews, and Royal Melbourne. Whether you’re a designer at heart or just a golfer who loves the craft behind the game, this episode is packed with thoughtful debates, personal stories, and a celebration of what makes great golf courses unforgettable.

We discuss the challenges, entertainment value, and level of play, and examine the risks and opportunities involved for the 48 creators who took part. They chased the exposure and the cash prizes, but is there a downside for their brands and much more? Music by: https://www.bensound.com/free-music-for-videos License certificate #: 2227748
