About this episode

This episode explores the overlooked history of Tom Bendelow, featuring his grandson as a guest.

A podcast four years in the making has finally arrived - the TalkinGolf History has shared the stories of Donald Ross, AW Tillinghast, Dr. Alister MacKenzie, Seth Raynor, Walter Travis, James Braid, Perry Maxwell and finally after years of trying to make it happen we have the story most of you don't know. Tom Bendelow's story is a story about the early days of American golf and yet a story that has somehow escaped the history books. I am so proud to present the History of Tom Bendelow with his own Grandson, Stuart Bendelow as our guest. Support TalkinGolf
