Built Different
Broomsedge exists because someone decided the usual way wasn’t good enough. Mike Koprowski bought a rugged stretch of South Carolina Sandhills and, working with Kyle Franz, built a course by hand that ignores convention in favor of possibility. Fairways overlap, holes offer multiple routes, and the course asks players to make decisions rather than follow instructions. Join us on our first visit to one of the game’s most talked-about modern builds.
