Episode 32: Dutch Golf Series #3 - Robin Bargmann #1

Robin Bargmann joins us on this episode to begin an exploration of early golf and the influence that the European lowlands had on the modern game of golf, founded in Scotland in the 15th century. Robin is widley recognised as one of the leading golf scholars in The Netherlands and has written a number of books including Serendipity of Early Golf which traces the many connections between Holland and Scotland. The breadth of his research as impressive as it is extensive, we trust that you enjoy what is the first of three instalments with Mr. Bargmann. The Serendipity book is now out of print, however, used copies can often be found on Abebooks if you are interested in augmenting your golfing library.
