Throwback episode to start the week off. This time going back to Kilspindie Golf Club. Featured on Tourist Sauce S2: E1, Kilspindie plays just over 5500 yards from the member tees. The Ben Sayers/Willie Park Jr. design is a par 69 laid out across a relatively flat expanse of land on Aberlady Bay and the Firth of Forth. What it lacks in dramatic terrain movement it makes up for in subtlety, quirk and fun. Please visit our YouTube channel and watch the full episode for more. Enjoy!

The Strapped Boys are back! This time they sit down and discuss the first course at Pinehurst Resort. According to history, hotel guests introduced the game in the dairy cattle grazing fields, hitting little white balls that disturbed the herd. Pinehurst Founder James Walker Tufts then hired Dr. D. Leroy Culver of New York to design and build a golf course in Pinehurst in 1898. The first clubhouse followed a few months later. Pinehurst’s first golf professional, John Dunn Tucker, was hired in 1899 to add an additional nine. The course later became Pinehurst No. 1, our first 18-hole layout. In 1900, Tufts hired Donald J. Ross, a young Scottish golf professional, to direct golf operations at Pinehurst. Ross completed renovations of No. 1 in 1901 and in 1907 completed work on Pinehurst No. 2. Enjoy!

Crash Course, Episode 35: Pinehurst No. 1

The Women's British Open is this weekend at famed Carnoustie so we brought in a true Scotsman, John Huggan, to talk about it. An up-front caveat, though, we spend more time discussing golf at large than we do Carnoustie, because in John's words, there's just not that much going on. So come for Tron and Randy discussing news of the day in the first part of the episode, and stay for John Huggan discussing his wider thoughts on the game of golf in the second part. You can find John writing at Golf Digest, and on twitter @johnhuggan. Enjoy!
