Neil Crafter is part of a great golfing family from Adelaide in South Australia. His father and uncle were golf professionals in Adelaide, and it was probably going to be a given that Neil and his sister Jane would ultimately become very good golfers as well.

As Neil grew through his playing career he decided that he wasn't going to be quite good enough to earn a living from playing golf and changed his focus to studying architecture. His architecture degree combined with passion for golf, and assisting his father designing golf courses in South Australia meant Neil would soon discover his work passion was golf course architecture.

Join Neil and myself as we discuss his career path into becoming one of Australia's respected golf course architects, some of the golf courses that he has recently worked on, along with his other passions of golf architecture history, Dr Alister MacKenzie, and writing books. You're sure to enjoy this one as much as I do!
