Golf Architecture Mailbag: Walkability, 2025 Course Openings, and More | The Fried Egg Golf Podcast

Fried Egg Golf’s Andy Johnson and Garrett Morrison answer questions from Club TFE members in this golf architecture mailbag episode. The two discuss how the walkability of a course impacts their thoughts on a design, share their thoughts on how to assess a course’s architecture while playing it, and debate how re-designs of historic courses should be handled. Andy and Garrett look ahead to some exciting projects finishing in 2025 and wrap the episode with one new hole that stood out to them during their travels this year.

  1. Great pod.

    I love the idea golf course architects being like football coaching trees. The clubs wanting to do renovations are like football programs. You have to be realistic about who is the right coach for your program, who can you afford, who is available, and who wants to work with you. Sometimes the big name isn’t the right fit but maybe the big name coach’s experienced defensive coordinator would be a great fit for your team.
