345 - Course Diaries: Formby Golf Club w/ Ian Jamson

Season 1 · Episode 345

Thursday, November 6, 2025 • Duration 42:32

Sam sits down with Formby Golf Club archivist and past Captain - Ian Jamson - to talk about the history of the club. Founded in 1884, Formby is one of the oldest courses on the north west coast and has some fascinating and eclectic tales, which Ian recounts beautifully in this episode.

From Horace the Hippo to a clock tower gifted by Sir Bruce Ismay of Titanic fame, and through the evolution of the links and its championship history, it’s a brilliant listen!

Ian is a superb storyteller and another highly passionate club archivist who thankfully preserves these wonderful stories for future generations, and we're really grateful to him for finding time to sit down with us.

It’s not just an assortment of holes with cemeteries nearby — we go back to medieval battles, haunted castles, greens built on ancient burial grounds, and even draw some tenuous links between bunkers and the afterlife.

336 - Obscure Walker Cup Stories w/ Dr Darragh Garrahy

Season 1 · Episode 336

Wednesday, September 3, 2025 • Duration 41:41

Dublin’s leading authority on pace putting and amateur golf joins the podcast this week to share his top five Walker Cup stories from the previous 49 editions of the venerable matchplay tournament between GB&I and the USA, as well as his All-Star squad of 10 players.

Darragh is obsessed with the Walker Cup, collecting artefacts from its history, including 48 programmes, crockery from Ganton, blazers from half a century ago, coasters — you name it.

While we’re grateful to him for giving up his time to join the podcast, deep down we know he needs no encouragement to talk about the event he loves.

With the event kicking off with the opening ceremony in a matter of days, it's another brilliant teaser around some of the wonderful history of this event!

245 - Course Diaries: Golf De Fontainebleau

Season 1 · Episode 245

Tuesday, June 4, 2024 • Duration 51:49

Sam and Tom recap their magical day spent south of Paris at the enchanting Fontainebleau.

The club is situated on a sprawling hunting estate which is home to one of the biggest palaces in all of France, and pre-dates Versailles by over 500 years. Originally founded in 1909 and laid out by Julian Chantepie, Tom Simpson reworked the course in 1920 and is responsible for much of what remains. Only a few modifications to the routing took place in the early '60s by Fred Hawtree, and the club have recently partnered with Clayton DeVries and Pont to further help develop the course and bring back some more of the Simpson magic.

It's a fascinating club, a sensational course, and has a clubhouse that could quite possibly be one of the best in golf!
