    Traveling Greenkeeper with Mike Fagan

    Traveling Greenkeeper with Mike Fagan

    Mike Fagan is the Golf Course Superintendent at Rock Manor Golf Course, which is located in my hometown of Wilmington, Delaware.  A green on Mike's course was recently vandalized where a person on a four wheeler and three of his jerk friends riding dirt bikes did spinouts and doughnuts, thus wrecking the back half of the green.  This crime was caught on video by local golfers and has since gone viral.  Mike and I break down what happened along with discussing his career as a greenkeeper.
