Hosts: D.J. Jones and Connor Evers, PGA, Haversham & Baker Expeditions.
Description: There are numerous decisions give an overseas golf trip its shape, so Evers reframes the timing question in a way most travelers haven't considered, while Jones breaks down the divide-and-conquer approach to choosing regions. And they both make the case for adding a course you've never heard of.
Talking Points:
▪️ Why framing your travel dates as “when can’t you go” is more productive than “when can you go.”
▪️ The daylight advantage of June and July, and the September wrinkle at St. Andrews that catches some groups off guard.
▪️ How to divide and conquer: picking one or two regions for weeklong trip, and why a third usually means shortchanging one of them.
▪️ The anchor-course strategy: pick your marquee course first and build the rest of the itinerary outward from there.
▪️ Why the course nobody in your group has heard of often becomes the highlight of the trip.
▪️ The difference between a trip that’s been planned for you and a trip that’s been hosted, and why a driver-host turns transit time into part of the experience.
