The EW Podcast - Jack Higgins with Tim Falvey - Rebuilding Inwood One Hole at a Time

Jack Higgins visits Tim Falvey at historic Inwood Country Club on Long Island for a tour of the property and a conversation about golf, turf management, course architecture, and restoration.Tim shares how he and his team are working to bring Inwood back toward its original links-style character, using historic aerials, removing trees, expanding short grass areas, incorporating fescue, and completing major renovation projects almost entirely in-house. They also discuss the challenges of managing a coastal golf course, including salt, wind, drought, extreme humidity, and an irrigation failure that left the course without its system for nearly 10 days. Along the way, Tim talks about his trip to Scotland, creating firm and fast playing conditions, designing for multiple shot options, his approach to shaping and construction, and what’s ahead for Inwood as the club continues to reconnect with its remarkable golf history.Visit EarthWorks at: https://www.earthworksturf.com Podcasts: https://www.earthworksturf.com/earthworks-podcasts/ EW Turf Talks: https://www.earthworksturf.com/2-minute-turf-talks/
