Brian Thompson will begin working as the full-time BASF staff member at FarmLinks in May. In his new role, he will take the lead on presenting the BASF portion of The Experience at FarmLinks. Brian was formerly a golf course superintendent at Sutton Bay Golf Club in Agar, South Dakota. Prior to that, he served as superintendent at Elcona Country Club in Elkhart, Ind. He has also worked at the Inverness Club in Toledo, OH and the Birck boilermaker Golf Complex at Purdue. Brian is a Purdue University graduate with a B.S. in Turf Management.
 
Once he gets settled, Brian will begin posting blog entries covering the latest at FarmLinks
