If you’ve ever finished a round and thought, “That was a story worth keeping,” you’re in the right place.

Welcome to my corner of the golf world—where scorecards matter, but memories matter more. Across five books—Tee to Green: A Golfer’s Odyssey through America’s 50 States, A Week on England’s Golf Coast, 55 Cool Golf Experiences, A Golfer’s Week in Northern Ireland, and A Golfing Week in New Zealand—I collect the kinds of moments golfers love to relive: the first look at a windswept seaside fairway, the nervous thrill on a new first tee, the local pub that becomes part of the legend, and the one swing you’ll replay in your head all the way home.

These aren’t guidebooks in the “here’s the yardage” sense. They’re golf travel memories—course stories, characters, small mishaps, surprise highlights, and the tiny details that make a trip unforgettable. Along the way, you’ll find plenty of practical help too: what a place feels like, what’s worth the splurge, how to shape an itinerary, and ideas for fun excursions that turn a golf trip into a full-on adventure.

And if you like golf talk the way it happens in real life—between shots, over a drink, or on the ride back to the hotel—check out the blog. It’s a running set of opinions and observations from a low-handicap amateur who still believes the game is equal parts craft, comedy, and lifelong pursuit. Some posts are about playing better. Some are about golf culture. All of them are about loving the game enough to keep chasing the next great round—and the next great place to play one.

So have a look around. Find a destination, steal an idea for your next trip, or just settle in for a good golf story. The best part is always the next tee.
