Smarter Golfers Play Better When They Think Like a Golf Course Architect

666: Tripp Davis practices golf architecture with an unparalleled passion for being a craftsman and a golfer. He approaches design, renovation, and restoration of golf courses around the world by challenging the visual effect of the game through architecture and strategic details. In his return to Golf Smarter, he and host Fred Greene discuss the state of golf course development around the world, whether he designs for amateurs or the Tour, and how thinking like an architect would improve every round for every golfer.
