Talk Birdie To Me

Ep175: The Tour Pro Who Was Paid in 'Laundry Service', and Would a Caddy Help a Low/Mid/High Handicapper?


Listen Later

Feedback pod today with a number of questions and comments for Nick and Mark to discuss.


Jeff makes the observation that he feels golfers need to 'lower their expectations' in order to achieve better results. His message explains his thinking, and Nick and Mark discuss. 'Tramspotters' has a mate who he says plays practice rounds like comp, and comps like practice rounds and it causes issues. Nick and Mark talk about where you should do your 'tinkering', why, and how they do it.


Feedback on our Mini last week where we read out Freds email where he talked about going from hitting it like Scheffler to hitting it like Captain Hook in the one round. Mike said bad shots happen, just deal with it, and we read a message from Scott who plays at the same club as Fred and responds to the discussion.


Alan wants to know if caddies make a difference to (non pro) players. Nick and Mark say they do, with some caveats.


Spindles has some comments on the Golden Bear, and Nick and Mark discuss the great man.


And we end with a message from Thomas who is a huge fan of Moe Norman, and is keen to hear Nick and Marks views on Moe and his game. Mark, as it turned out, had some time with Moe and tells a couple of great stories that you must hear.
