Episode Details

Golf course architecture is more than just pretty fairways — it’s a blend of art, science, and deeply rooted place-based design. In this episode, we sit down with Brian Ross, a rising star in the golf design world, whose journey from rural Appalachia to leading his own firm exemplifies passion, persistence, and a love for the land. Discover how his early years with makeshift clubs and a fascination with Donald Ross courses led him to create some of the most compelling new and restored courses today, including the much-talked-about Great Dunes at Jekyll Island and the underdog favorite, Park Mammoth.
