When you work where others play, you need a partner you can trust to keep your course in perfect condition. Find your nearest ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠J⁠ohn Deere dealer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠deere.com.au⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jock McPherson comes across as a humble kinda bloke. And when you find out that his greenkeeping career began in Tamworth, NSW, it kinda sounds about right too. But when you find out that he is currently Senior Assistant Superintendent at the one and only Congressional Country Club just outside Washington DC in the USA, you really want to know more!I'm not going to divulge his whole career in this caption needless to say that Jock's story is one you want to hear. Jock's career story includes both golf courses in Tamworth, the extremely private and famed Ellerston golf course, and a career changing melting pot of USA experiences thanks to the Ohio State Program. Jock may come across as somewhat calm and unassuming, but don't let that fool you, he has worked hard to carved out a greenkeeping career that many will find inspirational and even admire!Join Jock and I as we step through his wonderful career, from country NSW, all the way to the big smoke of Congressional just outside Washington DC, discussing the wide range of different weather conditions and diverse turf surfaces he has experienced in a relatively short time frame. This is one you will enjoy!You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper TV - YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Send me an email to - thegolfinggreenkeeper@gmail.comPeople and places mentioned in this podcast:Congressional Country ClubCal Club (California Golf Club)Tamworth Golf ClubLongyard Golf CourseGreg Norman Golf Course DesignTamworth, NSW - WikiEllerstonBarnbougleThe Cliffs Kangaroo IslandEP.135 Steve's Ransom Special Guest - Mike O'KeeffeOhio State ProgramAustin Country ClubAustin, Texas - WikiMedinah Country ClubOCM Golf Course Design

  • EP.160 Steve's Random Special Guest - Nadeem Zreikat (International Turfgrass Society)

    EP.160 Steve's Random Special Guest - Nadeem Zreikat (International Turfgrass Society)
    Dec 27 2025

    Whilst it's called Steve's Random Special Guest, this episode brings back long time friend of the podcast, Nadeem Zreikat. This time however, Nadeem has a new title to add to his repertoire - board member of the International Turfgrass Society.


    Nadeem joins me to talk about not only his recent appointment as part of the International Turfgrass Society, but also we discuss just what the society of all about and what they do in the world of turf. Many of you may not have heard of them before, me included, and this was a great little chat to hear about the many benefits of their work and also how you can be involved to help improve yourself.


    And, with the recent news of the passing of Peter McMaugh, we finish off the podcast with a late inclusion of our own little tribute to Peter's life and work.


    Thank you to Avondale Golf Club for allowing us to record this podcast episode inside their wonderful clubhouse.


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