Episode 67: TGH 67: The Birth and Death of Golf in America
Our latest episode of Golf From the Fringe: The Birth and Death of Golf In America: The Story of Harleston Green, is the true story of how the game of golf came to America in the mid-1700s. This story takes place over a 60 year period from 1739 to 1799 and tells the story of America's first golfers, first golf course and first golf club and how they semmingly, like the colony of Roanoke, disappeared in the middle of the night.
I can't tell you how proud of how this show came together - in my book its an instant classic.
Correction:
During the podcast I state thaf the first known golfer in America was William Blacklock of Charleston (1739). As it turns out a set or golf clubs and golf balls were noted in the effects of Governor William Burnet on October 13, 1729 (a full decade earlier).
Soundtrack:
"The Rise" by MRTN
"Touch" by Mattia Cupelli
"Forgotten" by Whitesand
"Hidden Past" by Kevin MacLeod
