This week, we’re taking a short break from guest interviews to catch up on what’s happening in golf and share one of the most memorable golf trips we’ve ever discussed on The Cart Barn Podcast.
Gregg recently traveled to Nebraska, where he played everything from nationally ranked courses to hidden nine-hole gems. Along the way, he discovered something neither of us had ever seen before—a golf course with sand greens, including one unforgettable hole known simply as “The Bull Pen.”
We also discuss:
- Jackson Koivun’s incredible start on the PGA TOUR
- The Alabama Open and Carter Goodwin’s wire-to-wire victory
- Gregg’s visit to the USGA Women’s Amateur Media Day at The Honors Course
- Why Nebraska may be America’s most underrated golf destination
- The unique traditions that still exist in small-town golf
- Alabama Golf News’ new Oakmont caddie series featuring stories from golf’s past
Sometimes the best golf stories aren’t about championships—they’re about discovering something you’ve never seen before.
