The NCG Podcast: Why are golf courses obsessed with being difficult?
As part of NCG’s Links Golf Week, Alex Perry, Dan Murphy and Mark Townsend are joined by Dean Muir, the course manager of the Machrie on the Isle of Islay.
Muir, who left Muirfield to take up this role, brings a fascinating insight on a life working on links golf courses with his various techniques and philosophies: “The more the ball is on the ground, the more interesting the game is.”
Dean also discussses his thoughts on blind shots, course length, and the dreaded rough. And he raises a few eyebrows when asked what his favourite links golf courses are.

All episodes of the NCG Podcast are available on the National Club Golfer website, as well as iTunes, SoundCloud, and our YouTube channel. And you can still listen to the Niggle Podcast episodes.
