217 - Mik Wells

Golf course construction guru Mik Wells joins us this week to talk about his career in golf course construction, how that work has evolved in recent years as well as the influence he draws from the great golden age architects of yesteryear.  Mik is such a fun person, we stayed wiht him up at the lodges in Cabot Highlands earlier this year and when we learnt he was over at Hinkley Golf Club doing some work to their bunkers during the off-season we couldn't resist going over for a bit of dinner and podcast!  The work of Mik and the shapers are sometimes the most underrrated, the ability tio spoil any great concept or design, or equally bring to life something fairly mundane into some extraordinary. His latest project is building the new course at Cabot Highlands with architect Tom Doak and Clye Johnson, quite the task!
