Description
Red Dirt Golf Collective was born out of an enthusiasm for the game and a passion for the state of Oklahoma.
We seek to reveal a true, in-depth narrative of influential courses and figures who have shaped or continue to shape this game in our great state. From your local muni to the upper echelon of Oklahoma’s most renowned golf clubs, there are stories to be told. Someone just needs to tell them.
We travel the state to experience hidden gems and well-known treasures. We talk to people - like you - who love the game. We dedicate ourselves to preserving and promoting golf from the prairie grasslands of Boise City to the pine-lined fairways of Broken Bow.
