EP.140 Walking the Fairways - feat. Chris Rae (Orkney Golf Club)

Walking the Fairways segment of The Golfing Greenkeeper Podcast
is proudly brought to you by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dint Golf

This segment of Walking the Fairways has plenty of information
coming out of NSW including the well known Mollymook Golf Club's
Hilltop Golf Course. We stop in quickly to the ACT with some
information from Canberra Public Golf Course, before a jump to NZ
with some information about the new Glendhu Golf Course being
built on the banks of Lake Wanaka. Arm End in Tasmania also has a
little bit of news.





The big part of this episode however is the conversation I have
with Superintendent Chris Rae of Orkney Golf Club in the UK
having now completed hosting the 2025 Island Games. Chris jumps
on the pod to give us an insight as to what it was like hosting
the games and preparing the golf course with a challenging lead
up to the event in such a remote part of the world.
