Brad Gehl is not fearless, but he is persistent as hell.
In this episode we cover his path through golf which includes:
- Growing up in an athletic and creative family in Indiana
- Walking onto Oklahoma State as the #3 player on his HS team
- Grinding through amateur golf, then turning professional
- The move to Jupiter and the crew that raised his standards
- COVID & his non profit "The Hangry Project" + Summer School Documentary
- His departure from professional golf
- A decision to pursue Golf Design through golf construction at The Park
- Experiences working with Hanse, Doak, associates, and crews.
- & What's ahead
There's plenty more too. His creativity which originated as writing and filmmaking will certainly seep into his future design work. For now, it's time to be fully and utterly immersed in the dirt (dert).
