Tom Doak’s Spectacular Golfing Mind | GOLF Originals, Ep. 2

[@BillHogan-ui1tf]

Superb - such a creative mind to go from canvas to creation to finished product. The vision is a real gift.

Awesome look at what really happens before we get to play on some of the most beautiful realestate in the world. im very lucky to grow up and live on long island, about 5 minutes from Bethpage golf courses, ive always wondered what it took to, first of all persevere that land fof golf way back when. its open to the public and theres 5 courses right on top of each other , the tee boxes for the first holes on all 5 course i can walk to within 5 minutes, just a beautiful piece of land, its very special that someone had the imagination to put it aside for a such a great sport. what most golfers say about playing golf is that were always out in some beautiful setting , sometimes i would just rather walk the course then play the course, take my time and really look around without distractions,, idk i find such beauty in golf architecture. Thanks guys.

Michael: I loved this interview and appreciate your efforts to bring Tom Doak’s personality out in the open. I personally enjoy his courses, particularly The Loop at Forest Dunes GC in Roscommon, Michigan. Well done!

[@foreleftyall]

fantastic content

[@dudespellings8325]

Another Doak course is West Texas???? Awesome!

[@rustywebber8598]

No mention of Barnbougle Dunes? Perhaps his best work.

I have a question, if you’re questioning whether the green should be higher or lower from a specific point shouldn’t you know how far the tees are to get the players to that point? No reason to question the height of the green if it’s a blind approach, but who likes those anyway.

[@stonewall435]

I like blind approaches.

Go Badgers!!! Let me know when you see it.

The clipping on Tom's audio is killing me. Damn

[@ronallen6578]

Yea, the game is changing, but unfortunately not necessarily for the better. And that is why I seldom watch the tour these days. I watched The Memorial because it's Jack's tournament and I have walked the course twice and I live within 100 miles. I watched the US Open because it's the US Open. Golf has lost its appeal since LIV and in all honesty because of what Phil turned out to be. Use to be a HUGE fan of his, now I could care less.

Volume difference between Doak and the narrator is bad.

Sheep Ranch is not a Doak course, Coore/Crenshaw.

[@thebeast666blazer420]

it was originally, but I do agree the modern Sheep Ranch has only a few shared green sites with Tom's original golf complex.

[@happygilmore2029]

Original 13 greens was setup by Tom Doak. The official golf course they built in that spot was Coore/Crenshaw
