  • Charming duo

    How can you make a podcast that both entertains and teaches you the nuance of both a game and man’s ability to sculpture nature. Both Josh Sens and his co host Simon Holt love the game of golf and have a deep appreciation for the courses that they have played for many years. It’s a refreshing slant on what I consider the my frustrating game in the world.
