Huxley Golf Plays Major Role in Georgia’s First Golf Course

Hampshire-based Huxley Golf, the PGA's official supplier for all-weather golf surfaces, has played a major role in launching the very first golf course in the country of Georgia.

The Eastern European country is not one traditionally associated with golf, but a new 'pitch and putt' academy course at the Ambasadori Golf Resort in Kachreti means the game can now be played in Georgia for the first time ever.

The three-hole, par-three course combines natural grass fairways with Huxley Golf's tournament-quality, all-weather surfaces. Each hole has been fitted with a bespoke Huxley Premier All-Weather Golf Green, complete with surrounding fringe areas measuring up to sixteen feet (five metres) wide. Huxley Golf's PGA-standard all-weather greens will significantly reduce maintenance requirements whilst providing completely realistic ball roll, reception and speed. Golfers will also begin each hole from a tee box fitted with Huxley Golf’s high-quality, durable, all-weather tee turf.

As the co-owner (with brother Barry) of UK-based Huxley Golf, Paul’s garden is a showcase, a test track for potential customers, and testament to nearly 70 years of success for an independent family business. It’s also where Huxleys carry out their ongoing R&D.
