448: History and TeeTour of Legendary Golf Course Pasatiempo with Head Professional Ken Woods

448: Pasatiempo Golf Course has an amazing history that includes being the course that Bobby Jones played just before deciding that Alister MacKenzie should be the architect of his property at Augusta, Georgia, which became home to The Masters. Our guest is Ken Woods, Head Professional at Pasatiempo in the Santa Cruz mountains, just north of the Monterey Peninsula in California. Ken shares the full story of how Pasatiempo came to be in the late 1920’s, Alister MacKenzie’s design features, and the difficulty of the course.

We start the show with a short conversation with long time GOLF SMARTER member, Tim Kilkenny of Ohio, who made his first hole-in-one last week just after listening to the last episode where Darrin Gee explained how to sink one yourself..
