Talk Birdie To Me

Ep131🏌🏿‍♂️Royal Melbourne Composite Hole Reviews, Criteria Suggestions for Greatest Shot Ever, and Cats Behaving Badly


Listen Later

Feedback pod today, and we've got plenty of comments and questions from the Wolfpack.


We start with a message from a young bloke who might have a future in this crazy game - Bradley Hughes - with a comment on Royal Melbourne Composite, which is hard to argue with. That feedback from Hugo reminds Nick that he also left a voicemail last week with some clarity on the Tiger Woods missing ball incident, providing some info that neither Nick or Mark were aware of. Mark decides that we have to get Tiger's caddy Steve Williams on the pod. We'll work on that.


Matt asks if there are any holes on the Royal Melbourne East course that are better than the West, and if so what are they. Nick and Mark run through a few and explain why. Hurmeez thinks the Australian Open should be at Royal Melbourne on the Composite each year - Nick and Mark give their view. And Jonesy from Sydney feels it should be at a different course each year, but only on Sandbelt courses.


Mark would love to see Coolum get a major tournament again, particularly now there are no dinosaurs on the course.


Pete has a request for a guest following the recent Portsea Pub story. And then after the turn, we head to the US, to Nebraska in fact, where wolfpacker Matthew would like to discuss the greatest shot ever made, and place some criteria around it. A good chat with Matthew, with some fun interruptions from his cat.


A couple of weeks ago we had a caption contest for the picture of Nick's caddy Wilbur at Augusta - we've got three finalists from a massive amount of entries (we edited out the ones that were insanely rude - there was a surprising amount), and we have 3 finalists, plus an extra one from an ineligible entrant who is a current tour pro, thus why he can't enter!


A comment on a 'missed mulligan', and some feedback on a bit of gear that he bought from Golf Clearance Outlet from Ray, which has changed his game. And we spoke a week ago about 9-year old Jasper who is killing it - Paul sees Jasper each week in the simulator where he works, and gave us some of Jaspers figures.....woah....we have to get him on the pod for a chat, we'll sort that.
