Ep. 1: Welcome to Wise About Golf

For over a decade, Ken Wise has told the stories that built Texas on Wise About Texas — nearly two million downloads in 178 countries and a top 1% ranking worldwide. Now he’s turning that same back-porch storytelling toward a game he’s loved his whole life. In this introductory episode of Wise About Golf, Ken explains why he’s spending his next chapter on golf history: a 500-year-old game that scholars have largely left alone, a sport whose equipment and courses have changed constantly while its rules on honor and self-policing haven’t, and a country in the middle of a genuine golf boom that makes this the right moment to look back. Texas is the launching point — but if a story’s good enough, the runway goes worldwide.
