820: This week our guest is Paul Cunningham from Hartford Golf Club in Cheshire, near the Liverpool-Manchester metropolitan area of England. This semi-private 9 hole course has a lot of competition in the area, but they’re pushing the boundaries of many golf traditions to help introduce new players to the game. We applaud Paul’s courage and hope that some of these new ideas at Hartford GC can impact many other courses and continue to grow the game. https://www.hartfordgolf.co.uk/
