Fun conversation with ESPN’s @michaeleaves talking Augusta and more on the latest “Talking GolfGetaways” + what’s up lately with me, Kris and @MitchLaurance. Give it a listen wherever you pod: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tal…

(Thread) Our new TGG podcast, and it's a fascinating one. After @golfgetaways, @KrisMcEwen and I catch up a bit, a jammed 1/2 hour with ESPN Anchor and lead Masters and PGA Championship host @michaeleaves. Insightful, fun, and sublimely subject articulate as always, Michael

I wandered The Matchbox grounds, wrote a few words and put together a teaser video on my visit @TobaccoRoadGolf last week. It’s going to be all kinds of fun.

RT @golfgetaways: Pretty good trip starts today: Tree Farm, Camden, Aiken + Chalkmine, Tobacco Road (Stewart Cabin), Tot Hill Farm, Augusta…

This is how to spend your spring. Scarecrow returns April 1. gamblesands.com Par-3 No. 11 by @BrianOarGolf

Gamble Sands, Quicksands, Scarecrow … does @DavidMcLayKidd want to build another course in Brewster, Washington to keep his streak alive? Find out the answer (and more) on the latest episode of “Talking GolfGetaways” with Mitch & Darin. Listen Now: audioboom.com/posts/8867737-…

This is gonna be fun. Ownership @TobaccoRoadGolf has been tossing around expansion ideas for a very long time. Here’s the next step — a 12-hole hang spot unlike any other, played *through* the trees. I’ll have updates (and hopefully some drone shots) from my visit to the Carolinas in a few weeks.

If you’re a fan of Talking GolfGetaways, you know we love two things: Dawson’s Creek & Mike Strantz. So here’s a social-only mini-pod with @MitchLaurance reflecting on the passing of James Van Der Beek plus some thoughts on the heart-warming “Maverick” docufilm from @GolfersJournal shining a new spotlight on Strantz. And, of course, our good friend and producer, Kris McEwen, adds the perfect final note. Enjoy.

For the past decade, I’ve been tinkering with writing a book about Mike Strantz (who I never had the good fortune to meet in person), but now I doubt it could ever be as good as what @GolfersJournal has done with “Maverick” — beautiful work by the #BrokenTeeSociety team.

Who has questions? Interviewing David McLay-Kidd tomorrow on “Talking GolfGetaways” to discuss @GambleSands Scarecrow honors, new projects and more. Hit us with anything you want to know.

It’s been “I don’t know who Chris Gotterup is” many days since I watched professional golf on television 🤣 #ATTproam #PebbleBeach #PGATour

Lots of talk about @TobaccoRoadGolf’s opening hole the past few days, so here’s one of our fave flyovers from @BrianOarGolf 🎥

Check out the earthmoving at Ace Valley on what will be holes 2,3,11 and the island bonus hole, stylized adaptations of the famous templates. We’re all completely stoked to see these holes start coming to life! #MinnesotaGolf #BreezyPointResort #AceValleyGolf #Northwoods #Sand

Any of my friends out there played Old Waverly and/or Mossy Oak in Mississippi? [ photo by me ]

I’ve played Scarecrow @GambleSands as much as anybody, and @GolfersJournal really nailed the vibe of tackling DMK Design’s latest. Well worth the watch.

Still buzzing about this news. Amazing work by @DavidMcLayKidd @NickSchaan and the team @GambleSands. 2026 season is almost here.

Merry Christmas from Scarecrow and the entire team @GambleSands. April 1 is right around the corner 👀 gamblesands.com

Par-3 16th @RamsHillGolf is so tasty. Unbelievable weather here in the desert while so much of California is stuck under fog. Conditions are firm, fast and fun.
