Quinn Thompson-Designer and Craftsman of Bunkers

from The Tie Podcast · host Henry Shimp

Many of you deep in the golf world have heard of Quinn Thompson- some of you have never heard of him at all. Whether one or the other, you probably don't know a lot about the man. Quinn is a Chicago kid, who found the game by sneaking onto courses near home and hitting golf balls with his friends on the way to school. After finding an ad in the paper while at URI, he stumbled upon a grow-in job where he met Jeff Bradley, widely regarded as the bunker guru. Quinn made a good impression, and the rest is history. Today, Quinn leads his own projects throughout Japan, and consults some in England, building artistic bunkers everywhere he goes. As you'll learn, he's one of a kind- a savant in regard to his passions- and widely talented. Hope you enjoy this interview today with a man who adds so much flare to our game. His work is as important as any great artist, who keep us sane, and remind us that there is far more than function and engineering. With love, The Tie Guys@thetiepodcast on instagram and [email protected]
