Ep102🏌🏿‍♂️Feedback: How to Get the Most from a PGA Pro Lesson; Is Pebble Over-Rated, and why was Mark kicked out of Huntingdale?

02/06/25 • 32 min

A feedback pod this week where we run through more of your questions, comments, and feedback.

Lots of comments from you on the Links 100 list that Mark brought up last week on the pod, including a pretty blunt assessment of Pebble from one Wolfpacker. Nick and Mark run through Pebble hole by hole and give their thoughts.

Mark recommends a wonderful series of archive vision that he loves - Shell's Wonderful World of Golf. Some of the videos are here.

We have a voicemail from Grant in Melbourne with a question on how to get the most out a lesson with a PGA Pro. And Nick talks about working with his old coach Neil Simpson who Grant has also had a lesson with.

Jason Day's outfit at Pebble. We discuss following a question from Wolfpacker Paul. Mark tells a story about clothing at Huntingdale from years gone by.

A funny question, in the sense of how it came about, from Steve about the Webex Series.

And a serious question asked about James Sutherland, phrased a little bluntly, but whether it's directed at us or somebody else, we'll always discuss it.

And we finish with some fun stories about shagging balls.

Ep103 ⛳️ Guest: Michael Medway: Golf NSW Chairman on the 'Futures Program, and why they 'Don't Need Golf Australia';we don't need ga . we know golf we're not from other sports.

Today we have a chat with the Chairman of Golf NSW Michael Medway about their support program for younger golfers on their journey into the big league.

He talks about the players they are supporting, and talks about Corey Lamb in particular and why they are investing in him. he tells us how the arrangements are structured, how the funding is released, the non-financial support they provide.

Michael also talks about what they have done with their prize money and payments for players in tournaments.

Michael explains why Golf NSW are separate to the national body, and why he has no desire to 'hand the keys' to Golf NSW to Golf Australia. He comments that his member clubs would 'revolt' if they did, and one of issues he sees is that Golf Australia is 'not run by golf people'. Michael says that the Golf Australia board is 'narrow-sighted' in their treatment of The Australian Open, and goes on to say that he wants to protect NSW events from what has happened to many other state opens saying that the Vic Open is a 'shadow of its' former self'.
