Andy Johnson is joined by The Fried Egg's Matt Rouches and Clear Creek Director of Greens and Grounds Mike Cunniff on this two-part episode. To start, Andy and Matt discuss Matt's recent trip through the Nebraska Sandhills, where Matt played 14 different golf courses in six days. They discuss the best golf in the region, Matt's prior experience living in the Sandhills, playing courses with sand greens, and how he'd play just ten rounds in the area. After that, Andy sits down with Mike Cunniff at Clear Creek, a course in Carson City, Nevada next to Lake Tahoe. Andy and Mike talk about the Coore and Crenshaw course in the mountains, how they maintain the course in the elevation and with houses surrounding it, Mike's work at Old Sandwich and more.

Continually pursuing the game I love is what brought me to Fried Egg Golf. As my competitive years faded, I found myself working for a local golf course construction company which appeared to be a great starting point to becoming a golf course architect. After a couple of years in the dirt, I turned to the maintenance side of golf for something new. I just wanted to continue to pursue the game I loved no matter the form. Working at some of the great golf courses in across America only furthered my interests within golf design. Finally, a social media job posting from FEG piqued my interest to join a company that had a direct impact on my love for golf and golf design. Today, I continue to dip my hands into several aspects of the company, but most of my work includes writing, photography and creating videos. Outside of golf I enjoy rock climbing, skiing and spending as much time in nature as I can. (INI !)
