Weekend Chat: Full Swing?

Your Club TFE comment section for the second weekend of January

Written By

Welcome to your weekly chat post. The comment section is down there. No, there. Yep, that’s the one.

As usual, we encourage you to talk about anything and everything and nothing. If you’re new, feel free to introduce yourself. If you’re playing a cool course this weekend (somewhere warm, presumably), let us know. If you just ate all of your kids’ fruit snacks, keep that to yourself, you monster.

Your Friday question

What did you make of the trailer for Netflix’s new golf docu-series? Do you think it’ll be a Drive to Survive-like sensation? Or will it fall flat?

Should have been called “Cen. California Rain (I’m Sorry, Andy).” Thank you for supporting The Fried Egg.

About the author

Garrett Morrison

When I was 10 or 11 years old, my dad gave me a copy of The World Atlas of Golf. That kick-started my obsession with golf architecture. I read as many books about the subject as I could find, filled a couple of sketch books with plans for imaginary golf courses, and even joined the local junior golf league for a summer so I could get a crack at Alister MacKenzie's Valley Club of Montecito. I ended up pursuing other interests in high school and college, but in my early 30s I moved to Pebble Beach to teach English at a boarding school, and I fell back in love with golf. Soon I connected with Andy Johnson, founder of Fried Egg Golf. Andy offered me a job as Managing Editor in 2019. At the time, the two of us were the only full-time employees. The company has grown tremendously since then, and today I'm thrilled to serve as the Head of Architecture Content. I work with our talented team to produce videos, podcasts, and written work about golf courses and golf architecture.
