Amateur Golf Podcast: Learn about green-reading books with Jim Stracka
April 19, 2022 | by Sean Melia of AmateurGolf.com
It started with a round of golf with Scotty Cameron and a custom putter. Now StrackaLine is helping golfers make more putts
Jim Stracka has mixed golf and business for more than two decades. He is the founder and CEO of StrackaLine, which makes green reading books and yardage books. We cover Jim’s love of playing golf (especially when there’s a bit of money on the line…), how he started StrackaLine, what goes into the process for making a green reading book, and why these books can help every golfer at every level.
Ever the forward thinker, Stracka is also in the process of launching a new media/tech company called TVGolfer. He tells us all about this new venture and how it can be used by major golf events or a buddy trip to a golfing destination.
