Sunday Chat: Well That's A First

When is the last time you experienced something truly new to you on the golf course?

Good morning all,

With the Thursday Course Profile and Virtual Hangout, I decided to push this week's Weekend Chat to Sunday morning. We'll see how this goes! Get on down to our comment section to share some new experiences.

FEGC Housekeeping

We saw incredible demand from you all when we released our two international trip options for 2026. Not only was that encouraging from our community, but it sent us back to the drawing board. With that in mind, I have some more news to announce to you all. Check your email tomorrow.

With the membership name change, your member pro shop code is now FEGCMEMBER. You still receive your 10% discount in the pro shop. And if you're in need of new hats, Meg has you covered with a whole lot of new options for spring.

Have a question you want included in our weekend chat? Reply to this email or contact me at members@thefriedegg.com.

This Week's Question

Recently, I spent time at The Dunes Club in New Buffalo, Michigan with a group of you all for one of our FEGC member events. Mike Keiser's foray into golf, The Dunes Club is a unique place that prides itself on providing a unique golf experience. There are no tee times, no tee markers, and the course is littered with exciting opportunities. Many of the participants in the event mentioned how this was a completely different type of golf that they hadn't previously experienced. So my question is, when was the last time you experienced something truly new and different on the golf course? Whether that be an architectural choice or new type of design, I'm curious about when you last felt that something stopped you in your tracks?

About the author

Will Knights

Golf was a big part of my upbringing as I grew up with a PGA Professional as a dad. I went to the course with him in the morning, helped out in the pro shop, caddied, and ultimately played golf in college before helping out in the early days of Fried Egg. While I’ve been involved in many different aspects of our organization over the years, today you’ll largely find me at our events and helping our membership as our Community Manager. And while I love this position, my dream job will always be starting shortstop for the Chicago Cubs.
