How to Get a Golf License in Germany: Adventures in Golf Season 6, Episode 9

Before you can play on a course in Germany, you need a license. Erik Anders Lang takes the test to get his.

Welcome to PlatzreifeDüsseldorf, the site of Adventures in Golf's first trip to Deutschland, presented by United Airlines.

Before the big day, Erik heads to Golf-Sport-Verein Düsseldorf e.V. where he meets up with golf journalist Michael Basche for a quick range session.

Now, it's Erik's time to put his skills to the test, literally, at the Golf Club of Oberhausen where he meets the head pro, Thilo Fassbender, and his instructor, pro golfer instructor and gnarly skateboarder, Kevin Kunze.

After Erik's exam, he makes his way to what will likely become one of Düsseldorf's favorite hang-out spots: Topgolf. Way before the targets and bays are finished, Erik visits with two of the guys responsible for this new location and understands why they specifically chose this German city.

To wrap up his trip, Erik tees it up with golf journalist Isabel Von Wilcke, where he gets an even better understanding golf life in Germany from her perspective.
