Quogue Field Club is a 9-hole track located on Long Island. It’s a beautiful course that renowned golf course architect Ian Andrew has done restoration work for in recent years. Ian and I chatted about what went into the process of modifying and restoring certain parts of this Bendelow classic. Ian also shared some interesting insight regarding how the course compares to some of the heavy hitters in the area including Shinnecock and National. Spoiler Alert: It’s a completely different golf experience. This comes as a relief to locals looking to tee it up and avoid the summer crowds that plague the nearby Hamptons.

After speaking with Corey Harris about the Washington Club a few episodes back, I became infatuated with the concept of 9-hole courses. Their simplicity, and the particular type of laid-back experience that they provide is endlessly endearing.

Check out Ian’s Website to see some of the marvelous work he’s done.
