  • EP.116 Keeper of the Greens - Jeff Powell (Ballarat Golf Club)

    Jeff Powell is Superintendent of Ballarat Golf Club in regional Victoria. Known as a fantastic regional golf course, it went through a complete redevelopment by Thomson Perrett in the early 2000's. Jeff has been employed at Ballarat for so long that he remembers quite vividly just what is was like maintaining the old golf course prior to the redevelopment.


    The redevelopment of the golf course brought with it numerous challenges that Jeff walks us through and we hear the story in a very frank, honest, and sometimes laughable way.


    Included in Jeff's long career at Ballarat GC, we hear about the climatic challenges of trying to maintain both cool and warm season turf grasses at this unique site. And sometimes that includes snow!


    Join me on yet another sensational ride, this time with Jeff, as we traverse through time at Ballarat GC learning about some long lost maintenance practices and hear about what is involved with delivering a new golf course in regional Victoria, along with a few laughs along the way.


    You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!
