    I love this. So many golf podcasts are about golf pros. This is just two ordinary blokes doing the golf. Like gone fishing, but with golf, and no Bob Mortimer.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Addington, Surrey, England
Q: At what point did you decide that it wasn't a case of tinkering around the edges?
It was a slow burn over probably 10 years, where we realized the need for major renovation due to the engulfing growth.
Royal Hague, South Holland, Netherlands
Q: How do you manage to keep it updated and how do you maintain tradition while actually making it a modern golf course at the same time?
We haven't had that development in length because the design itself poses challenges that don't require further lengthening.
Lanark, Lanarkshire, Scotland
Q: How did you unearth some of the club's past?
Partly because of my role within the golf industry and sort of knowing a lot of clubs, knowing a lot about the history in Scotland and the game.
Powfoot, Dumfrieshire, Scotand
Q: What do winning championships like that mean for someone like you?
It gives confidence and proof that she can win and continue her golfing journey.
Powfoot, Dumfrieshire, Scotand
Q: How did you manage to win the championship?
