Seaton Carew stands apart for a number of reasons. Some might think its because of the unique 22 holes on site, facilitating a number of layouts throughout the year, or the fact it's a pure links course shaped by Dr Alister MacKenzie, but most importantly it's serves as a beacon for exceptional golf which remains focussed on being accessible for all and affordable on England's North-East coast. We've loved visiting Seaton for a number of years now, and every time we've been amazed at the improvements that are constantly happening to the course. Alex, Tom and the rest of the [...]

We’ve been drawn to the links of Wallasey Golf Club for quite some time. Situated on the rugged edge of the Wirral peninsula, it is a club steeped in the very fabric of golfing lore. Not only is it the proud birthplace of the Stableford scoring system - pioneered by Dr. Frank Stableford in 1932 - but it also holds a timeless connection to Bobby Jones, who famously graced these fairways to qualify for the Open Championship during his legendary 1930 Grand Slam year. Yet, what makes Wallasey so compelling today isn't just its illustrious history. In recent years, the [...]

In the swampy marshlands of North Florida, Pete Dye was tasked with the impossible: creating architectural theatre from a site once home only to alligators and rattlesnakes. The result was the Stadium Course, a modern temple of golf that felt entirely alien to the "pretty" aesthetic of its era. While other courses sought to find beauty in nature, Dye embraced a "mean pretty" philosophy. Using a primitive but brilliant method of moving muck and reclaiming sand, he and his wife, Alice, manufactured a landscape defined by visual intimidation and psychological warfare. His "switchback" design ensures that no two consecutive holes [...]

We’ve been admirers of West Sussex Golf Club – affectionately known as Pulborough – for some time now. Not only a fierce proponent of two-ball golf and a brisk pace of play, its exceptional heathland course also carries a rich history and, for generations, has been lauded among the finest courses in the world. A par 68 that may look modest on the scorecard, it provides a searching test for the scratch player while remaining relevant and enjoyable for the higher handicapper or older golfer. Every time we drive away from West Sussex, it’s hard to understand why golf ever [...]

Filmed over three years, this documentary follows the creation of Old Petty, the new Tom Doak course at Cabot Highlands. We go back to the earliest discussions around routing, the breaking of ground, the construction process, the provenance of the site, the architecture and subtle differences with Castle Stuart, and the grow-in of this much-anticipated addition to one of Scotland’s most exciting golfing destinations. Old Petty will not only enhance the Cabot Highlands experience but also strengthen the wider region, attracting golfers for longer stays and contributing to the local economy. A huge thanks to the outstanding team at Cabot [...]
