Bradley Klein, the preeminent author in this country on golf course design, will be among the six featured speakers for the annual New Jersey State Golf Association Golf Summit on Tuesday, March 25, at the NJSGA Headquarters at Galloping Hill Golf Course in Kenilworth.

The Golf Summit is considered the premier event in the state for networking and discussing hot-button topics among those in the golf industry.

The Golf Summit, sponsored by Block Vision, welcomes all members, officials and staff from any private or public golf facility in New Jersey, as well as members of golf-based associations in the state.

Klein, an industry lecturer on golf design, maintenance, economy and the media, will share his insights on his new book “Wide Open Fairways: A Journey Across the Landscapes of Modern Golf.” Those in attendance will each receive a free copy of the book.

In addition to Klein, who has been writing for Golfweek since 1988, other speakers include Matthew Pringle and Jim Moore, both of the USGA, who will discuss “While We’re Young,” the USGA initiative on fundamentals of pace of play and how course management affects pace of play.
