The 6ft1" golfer who wanted to be a jockey when he was young has lived a life most of us could only dream of, from playing golf with the game's greatest including Nicklaus, Langer, Faldo, Seve and more to being part of the first European Ryder Cup team to win in America.

Scott, Nick & Will from duck hook, a new Irish golf clothing company joined us on the podcast this week to share their journey. The lads were a lot of laughs as they shared stories from coming up with the business idea, to the financial realities involved in starting a clothing company, to Ben's "Flamboyant fashion sense". 

What could have been a fake tan brand, they opted instead to dive into the golfing world and we think they made the right choice... Duck hook was born from a frustration at the golf apparel industry and the obvious monopoly that the large brands have on it. Starting off with an initial range of polo shirts, they have quickly expanded their range to outerwear, headwear and womenswear. You'll do well to avoid one of these ducks the next time you're out on the links. 

In their own words "The duck hook philosophy is centred around quality and style at an affordable price." Thanks a million for listening to this episode of The Bogey Men golf podcast

Dave and Jonny sit down to react to Jordan temporarily catching fire, asking what is it about Spieth that makes him so likeable and relatable. Brooks is a winner again after claiming victory at the Waste Management Phoenix Open.

DJ makes an even bigger payday as he storms home to victory in Saudi Arabia. After Tony Finau fails to get it done we ask is winning a habit? How is it formed and what does Tony need to do.

Coming up is the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro(noAm) and Seamus Power is in the field once more flying the flag for Ireland, good luck Seamus!

Brian Wacker of Golf Digest & Mark O'Mahony of Concept Golf, formerly of Titleist came on the podcast to break down the recent findings from the R&A and the USGA around the Distance Insights Project Report along with their conclusions “Implications of Hitting Distance in Golf”.

We all came to this with varying opinions on the report and had a great discussion around whether bifurcation is the solution, should the ball be rolled back for everyone? What happens if nothing is done and is Webb's solution to smaller greens actually the perfect middle ground?

We cover some common arguments around rolling back the ball, Rory getting heated about the Report calling it a "huge waste of time and money" and plenty more.

Big thanks for Brian and Mark for their time and expertise on this podcast.

It's been a wild week in the world of golf. Our latest recap pod breaks down the incredible Patrick Reed drama, did he cheat? How did his situation differ to Rory's, how did the tour handle it, and everything else from the Farmers Insurance Open.

We also catch up on the European Tour from Abu Dhabi from Tyrrell Hatton dominating the field to Rory not being able to put four rounds together. Paul Casey smothered the field with his experience at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic as, friend of the pod, Robert MacIntyre buckled under the pressure of the final group on Sunday in a Ryder Cup year. The season is still only beginning and he'll learn plenty as he no doubt becomes part of the Ryder Cup conversation.

We caught up with the world amateur number 17 to talk about the challenges of 2020, from overcoming an injury to an unexpected fifth year at ASU that might prove her most important ahead of turning pro.

Olivia took a break in her morning putting practice to sit down with Jonny and discuss her meteoric rise through the amateur ranks. The four-time All American and earning every record imaginable at Arizona State University, it was great to learn more about how Olivia got into the game, the lessons she learnt growing up at Royal County Down, her experiences playing against the top professionals at some of the highest level competing in a number of Majors.

2nd longest for Driving Distance on the European Tour & 3rd in Strokes Gained Putting, Dean Burmester is our guest on this episode of The Bogey Men.

Dean joined Jonny and Dave on the pod this week to talk about a car accident at the start of 202 that changed his outlook on golf, his upbringing in a sporting family, struggling with some anxiety when it came to putting, meeting his targets for the season, his ambitions to play in the Majors again and his biggest weapon!

Dean shared some brilliant stories with us, from fishing with Ryan Fox, Long Drive competitions on the range, playing with Bryson DeChambeau and covering 569 yards without hitting a wood, going 2-iron, 2-iron for an Eagle.

We're looking forward to catching up with Dean again soon, and meeting up for a pint at the Irish Open in Mount Juliet from July 1st - 4th.

Dave and Jonny recap a busy week in the world of golf. Harris English ended a seven year drought to claim victory at the Sentry Tournament of Champions in Hawaii.

We react to Justin Thomas' homophobic slur during round 3 of the tournament and what he needs to redeem himself.

The 2022 PGA Championship has been stripped from Trump Bedminster and the R&A has released a statement to say that The Open was never planned to be played at Turnberry and won't be in the future.

Dave and Jonny then choose 5 of their 'Hidden Gem' golf courses that they have played in Ireland.
