The Matthews family has worked for a century on developing and improving golf in Michigan. So, it only makes sense we begin a Tartan Talks podcast series about golf in the state by having a conversation with somebody from the family. golfcourseindustry.com/media…

Congrats @wbm_III! I am lucky to be in that 4th generation 🍀 ⛳️
How does a cool-weather state like Michigan support more than 850 golf courses? We begin a multipart Tartan Talks series by tackling this question with Michigan golf lifer Bruce Matthews. ⛳️golfcourseindustry.com/media… 🍎podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

An amazing legacy! Congratulations on 100 years @wbm_III ⛳️
2025 marks 100 years of golf course design by members of the Matthews family. My grandfather, Bruce Sr. shaped tees, greens and bunkers with horses and pull scrapers in 1925. His first course was Tarpon Springs Country Club while working with Wayne Stiles and John VanKleek.

This sounds like a fun one, @wbm_III! “The greens are large and angry and the bunkers look like they have been clawed out of the earth. They will test your improvisational golf skills by giving you many paths to the hole.”
Fun day on the new short course at Manistee National.
