In Part 1 of Episode 48, I'm joined by two incredible guests: our Resident Director of Instruction, Tom Patri, and New York Times bestselling author, Tom Coyne. TP is currently on a bucket-list golf trip in New York, playing some of the most renowned courses in the country, and we get to live vicariously through him. He also shares his fond memories of "The King" on what would have been Arnold Palmer's 95th birthday, including why he named his son after Arnie and Palmer's touching reaction. Plus, we dive into Scottie Scheffler's record-breaking season, Jim Furyk's Presidents Cup captain picks, and how coaching in golf has evolved since TP's early playing days. Tom Coyne, one of the premier golf authors and journalists of our time, joins me as well. His novel, A Gentleman's Game, was named one of the top 25 sports books of all time by the Philadelphia Daily News. He's also penned several New York Times bestsellers like A Course Called Ireland, A Course Called Scotland, and A Course Called America. In this episode, he shares stories from these unforgettable journeys, talks about the prestigious award named in his honor, and gives us a glimpse into his podcast, The Golfer's Journal.
Welcome! In today's episode, we're honored to have Tom Coyne, Author and Golf Course Owner. Tom's vision for reviving Sullivan County Golf Club in 2024 is nothing short of spectacular. With a focus on enhancing both the golfing experience and overall atmosphere, Coyne is set to transform the 180-acre, nine-hole course into a golf destination. On the golfing front, Coyne is orchestrating a significant course renovation, including the creation of three new holes. The goal is to optimize the layout, taking advantage of the stunning topography and views that Sullivan County offers. With plans for sodding the entire course using a mix of grass strains reflective of its century-long history, the team aims to preserve the course's character while enhancing playability. The project also emphasizes sustainability, mindful of the Catskills' rural landscape. Coyne's approach involves careful tree removal to enhance safety and improve golf quality. The commitment to responsible land management, combined with the use of organic inputs from partners like Toro and AquaTrols, sets the stage for an environmentally conscious golfing experience. As Sullivan County Golf Club gears up for the 2024 season, it's not just about revitalizing a golf course; it's about creating a haven where golfers, families, and food enthusiasts converge to enjoy a unique blend of history, natural beauty, and exceptional experiences. The vision for saving Sullivan County Golf Club is poised to redefine what a golf destination can be.

Tom Coyne doesn't need much of an introduction. If you are a golf reader, his name will be familiar. Coyne is the author of a handful of moving golf books including a couple New York Times Bestsellers. His golf tales include popular titles such as A Gentleman's Game, Paper Tiger, A Course Called Ireland, A Course Called Scotland, and his latest effort, A Course Called America. In those books, Coyne takes readers along with him on a series of ambitious adventures. All of which begin with a looming question and become a journey of personal discovery. In these beautifully told tales, Coyne takes readers right along with him on cross country adventures that provide a backdrop for stories about the people and places that make golf a game worth playing. In addition to his books, Coyne has found a number of other impressive outlets to tell golf stories through. In recent years he has made a home at The Golfer's Journal where he has authored numerous essays and articles about his experiences in the game. Recently, he has been named Senior Editor for the publication. Coyne has also spent time in front of the camera hosting a variety of shows included a digital series called The Links Life that chronicles his worldly travels. All of which is impressive for a married father of two girls who teaches full time at St. Joseph's University in Philadelphia. I've known Tom Coyne for a few years now and have thoroughly enjoyed his company on and off the golf course. He's been a great guide on my own golf writing career journey and was even kind enough to write the forward for my first book, The Nine Virtues of Golf. I'm excited to dive into his latest book and with his new role at The Golfer's Journal I'm looking forward to have him edit some of my work. Coyne joins me on Mid-Am Crisis to talk about A Course Called America, his plans to promote the book this Summer, and what his new role with The Golfer's Journal means for his career. We talked about life and golf of course and as always his sense of humor and enjoyable disposition made for a great conversation. I'm hopeful our travels will lead us to playing together again soon and perhaps he even will give me a good grade on my next submission to The Golfer's Journal.

This week's Moonlighter takes a weekend hobby to a new level. Tom Coyne isn't just an avid golfer. He literally wrote the book on golfing in Ireland, Scotland, and is in the process of writing the book on golf in America. Tom Coyne has published four books: A Gentleman's Game, Paper Tiger, A Course Called Ireland, and A Course Called Scotland. His first book, A Gentleman's Game was turned into a 2001 movie that was nominated for an Espy. For his second book, Coyne put himself in the tee box. He isn't just a hack though, Coyne keeps careful score, avoids the foot wedge, and isn't flagging down the beer cart girl. For Paper Tiger, Coyne took his training very seriously in an effort to make the PGA Tour. His Scotland trip concluded with his attempt to qualify for the British Open. In his travels across Ireland and Scotland, Coyne was walking roughly 25 miles per day. His fifth book, A Course Called America is due out in 2021. Coyne played every US Open course in the United States and making sure to play a course in every state for his America book, including Waveland Golf Course in Des Moines.
