Grassless Golf in the OutbackNo grass, no prob. Just remember to rake the “green” before you putt. Erik Anders Lang tees it up on a completely grassless golf course in Southern Australia on this episode of Adventures In Golf, presented by United. Coober Pedy is the opal capital of the the world and home to one of the most unique courses on the planet. Crazy thing about this track: It’s the only course in the world with reciprocal rights to the home of golf, St. Andrews. We think Coober Pedy made a pretty sweet deal. - Destroyer Park GolfE3
Destroyer Park GolfIf golf and croquet had a baby, it’d be park golf. In this episode of Adventures In Golf, presented by United, we sent Erik Anders Lang to a small town outside Buffalo, New York, to try this unique version of golf. It originally started in Japan, but made its way to the United States by way of a pro wrestling icon Dick “The Destroyer” Beyer. - Hawaiian Island GolfE4
Hawaiian Island GolfProof you should never judge a golf course by its clubhouse. Kahuku is Erik Anders Lang’s next stop on Adventures In Golf, presented by United, where he plays a gorgeous 9-hole municipal golf course on a little island off the North Shore in Hawaii. The land on this course almost became the site of multi-million-dollar Hawaiian homes. Luckily, this tight-knit community wasn’t interested in selling out. - Death Valley Devil's Golf CourseE5
Death Valley Devil's Golf CourseIn his latest adventure, Erik travels to a place where finding shade is just as important as finding your ball. Adventures in Golf Season 3, presented by United, heads to the appropriately named Furnace Creek Golf Course in Death Valley, California. At 282 feet (86 meters) below sea level, Death Valley is home to the lowest elevation in North America, and some of the highest temperatures on earth, regularly reaching over 100 degree Fahrenheit (38 degrees Celsius). With conditions like these, this golf experience is just as unique as the people that take part in it. - Military GolfE6

Hickory golf is a variation of golf played with hickory shafted golf clubs produced prior to 1935. There's no titanium allowed, but Brassies, Spoons, Bulldogs, Jiggers, Cleeks, Niblicks, & Mashies are all fair game. - Miura - The Quest for the Perfect Golf ClubE10
