Episode Details

Most golf courses are designed with the intention to challenge, but Troy Miller’s approach aims to inspire community, accessibility, and preservation—bringing a new kind of strategy to the game. From his deep roots with Pete Dye to transforming Charleston’s historic Muni course into a masterpiece of design and community impact, Troy’s work is redefining what golf can be.

You’ll hear about the profound impact of community-driven projects—how making golf accessible can foster neighborhoods, preserve local history, and even solve stormwater challenges. Troy shares insights on his philosophy of short grass as the ultimate equalizer, and how his projects serve both serious enthusiasts and the everyday golfer seeking fun and fairness.

Whether you're a golfer, architect, or community leader, Troy’s insights will inspire you to think differently about how golf can serve everyone—not just the elite, but the everyday player who wants to connect, enjoy, and be proud of their local course.
