Travel Talk: Sand Valley

Author: Break 80 Podcast September 12, 2025 Duration: 1:08:07
In the last decade, Sand Valley has become one of America's premier golf destinations. The Break80 Podcast was lucky enough to spend a few days at the resort in central Wisconsin this summer and play all the golf courses. Tom Ferrell, the Vice President of Media and Communications for Dream Golf joins the podcast to talk all things Sand Valley. From the creation to what is upcoming for the resort, Tom dives into multiple stories about Sand Valley and how it came to be one the the best golf destinations in America. The pod guys will also discuss what they thought of the various courses, amenities and everything there is to do at Sand Valley.

The Break80 Podcast is a weekly conversation with Stouds, Mike, and Tim, three friends who find as much to talk about in the game's margins as in its major championships. This isn't just a recap of tour scores; it's a deep dive into the personal stories, the memorable rounds, and the local characters that give golf its texture. You'll hear their own experiences on the course, the good shots and the bad breaks, all framed by a genuine curiosity about what makes the sport compelling. The show actively seeks out the people and places that don't always make the headlines but are essential to the game's heart. It's built on the idea that the pursuit of that magic number-breaking 80-is a universal struggle, a mix of technical challenge and personal narrative. Tuning into this podcast feels like pulling up a chair in the grill room after a round, where the discussion ranges from equipment quirks to course design, always with a focus on the camaraderie that keeps players coming back. The Break80 crew operates with the understanding that the difference between a 79 and an 80 is everything, a philosophy that colors every story they uncover and every topic they share with their listeners.
