Talk Birdie To Me9 Okt 2024

🏌🏿‍♂️Bonus: Nick O'Hern on Losing Passion for Golf, Mark Allen calls The Ox a 'disgrace', and could Jack Riewoldt have been a Golf Pro?

A bonus Q&A pod today, we're all remote, Nick at home, Mark at 3AW about to fly out to play Tara Iti, and Dan in Wollongong.

Today we look at some of your questions:

Craig from Western Australia asks Nick and Mark about how to get passion for golf back if it has waned. Nick and Mark explains what they did when it happened to them.

Antony and Clinton have comments on rakes. Yes seriously. It's getting beyond a joke now.

Dave from Merewether in NSW is having issues with his putting and wants Nick and Mark's input.

And Kris asks a ripper question - of all the guys who they have played with, who weren't pro golfers, were any of them good enough to potentially turn pro? Mark names one who he says absolutely could have been a golf pro and made 'the wrong decision not to'.

Love your feedback, keep it coming, and leave a voicemail anytime on your phone at the link below.
