In this episode of the National Links Trust Podcast, we are joined by veteran course architect, Mike Young. With a career spanning more than 40 years in the golf industry, today, Mike is best known as the architect and owner of The Fields Golf Club in LaGrange, GA. Built on rolling hills southwest of Atlanta, The Fields has developed a "cult following" as an affordable, architecturally-engaging facility that places the golf experience as the most important aspect of their operations. More recently, Mike has been building Warmouth Sands, a soon-to-be-opened municipal course in Vidalia, GA.
In this interview, Mike discusses his path to course architecture, the story of The Fields, an update on Warmouth Sands, and his views on the state of public golf. Mike is consistently one of the most interesting voices in the game, having not just designed great affordable golf, but having operated it as well.
