It has almost been a whole month since my last blog post and everything between then and now seems like it is a bad dream that we all want to end. If you do not recall, my last blog post was a brief introduction to what was going to be the first ‘Spoiled Walk Open’Continue reading “AGWS – 10 – Covid19 Update and the Future of this Blog”

AGWS – 8 – A Trip to the Desert (PT IV – The Greatest Shot of the Trip, a tangent on Golf Architecture and a Long Unnecessary Blog Title)
According to my friends and family, I recently have fallen in love with Golf Course Architecture but in actuality, I have always loved golf course architecture, I just didn’t know that I loved it. I have always recognized good golf courses and knew what places were architecturally special but I didn’t have words to describeContinue reading “AGWS – 8 – A Trip to the Desert (PT IV – The Greatest Shot of the Trip, a tangent on Golf Architecture and a Long Unnecessary Blog Title)”
AGWS – 7 – A Trip to the Desert (PT III – Firerock)
After wrapping up in Green Valley and playing Canoa Ranch, my wife and I spent some time together in Scottsdale. This was the only portion of the trip that I did not play golf.

AGWS – 5 – A Trip to the Desert (PT I)

I wore lots of sweatpants, sweatshirts and athletic gear regardless of the function. To me “Dressing Up” was putting on a pair of jeans and anContinue reading “AGWS – 4 – Golf Fashion, Please Help Me”
AGWS – 3 – Accessibility in Golf, A Call to All Golfers
When people think of golf what do you think of? For me, I think of competition, artistry, beautiful architecture and fun with friends. However I have played golf all of my life, so what do people who don’t golf think of golf? My guess is that it is a bunch of rich white dudes playingContinue reading “AGWS – 3 – Accessibility in Golf, A Call to All Golfers”
AGWS – 2 – What is in the Bag? (WITB)
Golf Clubs are an interesting facet in today’s game. Today, you can fork over $500 to a scientist (Not Bryson) to evaluate your swing and get set up with the perfect set of clubs. Perfect shafts, perfect lie, perfect bounce and the ideal appearance at set up. In some cases I have seen the sameContinue reading “AGWS – 2 – What is in the Bag? (WITB)”
