Summary

491: Author Anthony Pioppi returns for the first time since 2006 to talk about the second edition of his book "To The Nines".

These aren't just executive par3 courses, these are great, challenging courses that were designed with 9 holes in mind. This could be an answer to golf's dilemma of the game taking too long!To The Nines is available on AmazonComplete Golf Smarter library guide, or search by topic or guest at GolfSmarter.comFor exclusive content and first access check out Corrected Mistakes on Substack: https://substack.com/@correctedmistake  Learn more about your ad choices.
