My guest this week is Jordan Jackson, an architecture obsessed golfer and the voice behind Dog Tracks and Cow Pastures. We chat about his journey in the game—from early rounds with his dad to his experiences in competitive golf—and how that led him to a deep appreciation for golf course architecture. Jordan shares his thoughts on the influence of Stanley Thompson, the charm of nine-hole courses, and his mission to spotlight public golf courses that might otherwise be overlooked. We also dig into the Canadian golf scene, and Jordan's project to rank the best nine-hole courses across Canada. Jordan has a super unique perspective on golf and I had a pleasure learning more about how his golf brain works.
