An afternoon at Sunningdale Heath
Sunningdale Heath Golf Club - 11th October, 2024 Now Sold out - please register to be added to our waiting list. #FeelTheJoy in partnership with FootJoy On the 11th October we are putting together a relaxed afternoon of short course fun at Sunningdale Heath. Formerly known as Sunningdale Ladies Golf Club, what this short Harry Colt course lacks in length, it more than makes up for it in intimacy and challenge.

038 – North & back again

It's a rather different style of architecture to the one I'm usually involved in, but I find it incredibly interesting. You should go and listen to the Cookie Jar Pod with Joe McDonnell on it - essential listening (after you've finished here, of course). Cookie Jar podcast episode with Joe McDonnell. Hopefully our Swedish interlude won't be permanent and Bledge [...]
