Chasing Golden Age Golf in the Northeast 

Nine days, Nine courses, and a search for the heart of Golden Age golf in the Northeast. This trip wasn’t just mine, it was a journey shared with two fellow Evans Scholars and Old Barnwell caddies, brought together by our love for the game and the good graces of the golf community. Through connections, generosity, and the support of Old Barnwell members, we found ourselves teeing it up at some of the region’s most storied and memorable courses. As a golf course builder obsessed with the architecture and the stories behind every layout, I set out to see how the Northeast lives up to its legendary reputation. Each stop had its own personality and plenty of moments that made me appreciate the game even more. What follows are my stories, snapshots, and honest takes from a trip I won’t soon forget.
