The board of the Netherlands Golf Museum received an email some time ago from Kees Rietveld, a Friend of the Golf Museum and board member of Golfclub Bleijenbeek:
Good evening, gentlemen,
I don’t know if you ever listen to the golf podcast PodjeGolf? This is a podcast hosted by Gerard Louter (golf commentator at Ziggi Golf) and Sietse Herrema, both working at the NGF.
Some time ago, I invited PodjeGolf to do a broadcast from Landgoed Bleijenbeek. And in their latest broadcast on July 17, they responded positively to this! They would like to arrange a meeting after the holiday period to do a broadcast from Bleijenbeek.
For those who don’t know PodjeGolf: this podcast has already aired 98 episodes and has been very popular among many golfers and golf enthusiasts since 2020. I am also a loyal listener!
On Wednesday, November 12, the day had come, and Gerard Louter and Sietse Herrema were warmly welcomed in the restaurant of Landgoed Bleijenbeek with a banner made by Kees (see photo) and Limburg pie (from the baker).
The plan was for both presenters to explore the golf museum themselves, but the briefing by John and Jacques was so enthusiastic that they were happy to be given a guided tour beforehand before starting the podcast.
Nice to hear from both of them that the golf museum is a must-visit for every golfer!
Around noon, a round of golf was scheduled with Kees and Dirk-Jan Vink, owner of Bleijenbeek Estate. Gerard and Sietse couldn’t have picked a better day to visit the golf museum and play golf themselves, because the weather was beautiful.
All episodes (including ours soon) can be listened to again at https://podcastluisteren.nl/pod/Podje-Golf
