Show Notes

Joe Hancock is one of the OG’s of golf course building and shaping, and has worked with the profession’s greatest architects. The list of courses’s he’s helped build is staggering. He joins Jim Urbina and Derek Duncan to discuss how Mike DeVries pulled him into golf design, how his own sense of frugality influences his design outlook, the importance of collaboration in successful design, how the experiential side of golf may be more important than the strategic intentions, the value of creative thought versus using precedent for inspiration and the advice he’d give to younger shapers hoping to have a long career in this industry.
