Geoff Shackelford and the Public Golf Scene in Southern California | Episode 29
Friday, 7 February, 2025
In this episode of the National Links Trust Podcast, our host, Will Smith, is joined by Geoff Shackelford. Geoff is one of golf’s most influential writers having authored 11 books and with his work appearing in the Los Angeles Times, Sports Illustrated, Golf Digest, and more. He is also the publisher of The Quadrilateral, a newsletter that covers the game through the lens of the four majors. Geoff teamed up with Gil Hanse to design Rustic Canyon Golf Course: one of Southern California's best public courses. He is a native Southern Californian and still resides in the greater Lost Angeles area today. In this interview, Geoff and Will discuss public golf in the greater Los Angeles area. They touch on the challenges and opportunities presented by the public and municipal courses in the area, as well as golf's role as Los Angeles recovers from the devastating fires earlier this winter.
