    2026/06/16
    The Design Brief segment of The Golfing Greenkeeper Podcast is proudly brought to you by ⁠McMahons⁠. Check out their website to get a better understanding of their suite of services and outstanding portfolio of work at ⁠www.mcmahons.net.auFrom humble beginnings in Melbourne after finishing school, Michael Henderson found a desire in wanting to understand golf course architecture much more. He read all he could find and put himself on a path to earning an opportunity to work in this rather niche industry.From submitting design work to a golf course architecture competition, to working at Royal Melbourne Golf Club, Michael wanted in on the golf architecture world and nothing was going to stop him. He gained a couple of different opportunities over time working with a couple of well known firms, including shaping on site helping to build the well known and now famous Tara Iti in New Zealand.Fast forward to today and Michael is now a member of the Society of Australian Golf Course architects having completed his own work to redesign an amazing transformation of Mallacoota Golf Club after the devastating 2019 bushfires, along with recent work at Flinders Golf Club on Victoria's Mornington Peninsula.Come along for the ride as we launch into Michael's background and career, along with some fun and interesting discussions around courses other than 18 holes.You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper TV - YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Send me an email to - thegolfinggreenkeeper@gmail.comPeople and places mentioned in this podcast:Holes in the GroundMichael Henderson SAGCA ProfileSociety of Australian Golf Course Architects (SAGCA)The Lakes Golf ClubPennant Hills Golf ClubRoyal Lytham & St Annes Golf ClubSandhurst ClubNorth Berwick Golf ClubHokitika Golf ClubRoyal Melbourne Golf ClubTom DoakTony Cashmore Profile - Planet GolfTara Iti Golf Club13th BeachThe Dunes Golf LinksRenaissance GolfThe National Golf Club - Gunnamatta CourseConcord Golf Club7 Mile BeachClayton DeVries & Pont (CDP)Mallacoota Golf & Country ClubMallacoota's Story - The Victorian Bushfires RememberedCurlewis Golf ClubFlinders Golf ClubWollongong Golf ClubAlister MacKenzie SocietyBarwon Heads Golf ClubNewgreens ChatswoodMoore Park Golf CourseBarnbougle - Bougle RunKingston Heath Golf Club - The FurrowsLatrobe Golf Club - The IslandCommonwealth Golf ClubMetropolitan Golf ClubCrafter Mogford - Golf StrategiesEP.187 The Design Brief - Scott ChampionEP.78 Keeper of the Greens - John MannEP.130 Keeper of the Greens - Adam Lamb

  • EP.190 Aussie Golf History - The Lost Links of Applecross

    EP.190 Aussie Golf History - The Lost Links of Applecross
    2026/06/07

    This segment of Aussie Golf History is about a recent discovery I made of a lost 18 hole golf course that was originally designed by Vern Morcom and started construction in the suburb of Applecross in Perth, Western Australia.


    Famous as an amazing greenkeeper and golf course architect of Melbourne and Victoria, why did Vern design a new golf course in Perth? Why haven't we ever heard of this golf course before? And what happened to the golf course? All of your questions will be answered in this interesting short version of Aussie Golf History.



    You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!

The golf course at Karratha is a local public community asset that not so long ago was upgraded from sand putting greens to grass greens which Callum was heavily involved with. The course also went through a redesign at the same time.Prior to his current position, Callum leaned his trade at Busselton Golf Club. After completing his time at Busselton, Callum was soon taking the controls leading the team at Busselton as superintendent where he was able to improve the course over a number of years. After a short stint away from the industry and back again, plans were being setup to redesign Karratha GC and Callum's name was being put forward as the man to take Karratha to the next level.Load up and get set for a trip to somewhere few people ever venture to in real life as Callum takes us through his career and what it's like looking after a unique Australian golf course in a magical and remote part of the country!You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper TV - YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Send me an email to - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thegolfinggreenkeeper@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠People and places mentioned in this podcast:Karratha Golf ClubPort Hedland Golf ClubFortescue Golf Club - NewmanExmouth Golf ClubBroome Golf ClubDerby Golf ClubJack's PointTropical Cyclone Vance - WikiBusselton Golf ClubMelville Glades Golf ClubBuffel Grass - WikiNatadola Bay Golf CourseRichard Chamberlain Golf DesignEP.65 Keeper of the Greens - Lance KnoxEP.106 The Design Brief - Richard ChamberlainEP.71 Keeper of the Greens - Jason JohnsonEP.90 Keeper of the Greens - Jimmy Downes

    The Design Brief segment of The Golfing Greenkeeper Podcast is proudly brought to you by McMahons. Check out their website to get a better understanding of their suite of services and outstanding portfolio of work at www.mcmahons.net.auScott Champion might not quite be a household name just yet, but I'm certain you have heard of some of the work he has been involved with. An early part of Scott's golf course architecture career involved a start at Greg Norman Golf Course Design working with a couple of architects such as Bob Harrison and Harley Kruse. Fast forward a few years and Bob Harrison decided to start his own design firm and he asked Scott to join him in the business. Yes, Scott has been part of Harrison Golf since it's inception!Scott tells us about his early years getting into the industry after which we get stuck into one of Harrison Golf's more famous designs - Ardfin in Scotland. There's a great story here before we stop next to focus on a current Harrison Golf project in detail, being the redesign of the well known Newcastle Golf Club to the north of Sydney.As always there's a few rabbit holes and Scott shares his insights and thoughts of golf course architecture, so join us for a wonderful chat on the new and improved version of The Design Brief brought to you by McMahons.You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper TV - YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Send me an email to - thegolfinggreenkeeper@gmail.comPeople and places mentioned in this podcast:Too many to list but here goes....Harrison GolfMetropolitan Golf ClubBrora Golf ClubMachrihanish Golf ClubSociety of Australian Golf Course Architects (SAGCA)International Specialised Skills InstituteOld Tom Morris - WikiAlister MacKenzieAlwoodly Golf ClubMoortown Golf ClubCavendish Golf ClubHarry Colt - WikiSunningdale Golf ClubSt George's Hill Golf ClubSwinley Forest Golf ClubMachrihanish DunesTrump International ScotlandKingsbarns Golf LinksCabot Highlands Castle StuartNorth Berwick Golf ClubCruden Bay Golf ClubArdfinEllerstonThe MachrieCastle Hill Country ClubRiverside Oaks Golf ResortNewcastle Golf ClubSuper Stallion HelicopterAustralian Golf Passport PodcastFried Egg GolfBonville Golf ResortHamilton Island Golf Club
