Digging into Design: Sweetens Cove with Rob Collins
Presented by Johnnie-O, this is Episode Two of a five-part series on some of our favorite public courses in the U.S.
Back like it never left, Digging into Design has returned to the Fried Egg Golf rota.
The series was revived in October on our YouTube channel with Episode One of a five-part series presented by Johnnie-O that dives deep into the details of some of the great public golf courses in the United States. First up was Sedge Valley, where Tom Doak took us through the intricacies of his latest design at Sand Valley in Nekoosa, Wisconsin.
Now live on our YouTube channel, Episode Two puts Sweetens Cove in the spotlight as co-architect Rob Collins tells the story of how the first social media golf course came to be.
Next up will be Mid Pines featuring Shane Bacon, with The Park to follow (and a yet-to-be-announced course in 2025).
Check out Episode Two of Digging into Design: Sweetens Cove with Rob Collins.
