Friday Feedback: Could Nick and Mark get a 14 & 15 handicapper around Augusta in less than 144 shots?

It's a Talk Birdie 'Friday Feedback' pod today with plenty of great questions and comment, and one offensive one (we're talking about you Greg....).

We start with Glenn who has some more info to add to the discussion last week about Nelly Korda and her Australian connection.

Onto Ange who has just returned from the US watching The Masters, and poses a fantastic hypothetical question to Nick and Mark about what he might shoot if he played Augusta with some criteria....very funny.

Steve, and separately YouTube viewer 'Found1', have some strong views on bifurcation which they put to Nick and Mark.

Paul is a fan of pot bunkers. Nick and Mark are not, at least not on some courses and typically not in Australia.....but in the UK? Maybe that's different.

Last week a YouTube wolfpacker called Nick and Mark 'berks' over their comments on LIV. None of us knew what it meant, we just thought it was a funny insult, and we all forgot to look it up. But Jim knows what it meant, and it's not good...he lets us know. Safe to say we probably won't be adding that one to the vocabulary.

Afte the turn, we read a message from Jules who just listened to the recent mini where Nick was telling stories about playing with Bubba Watson....and she recalled seeing Bubba review AFL star Matty Richardsons golf swing a couple of years ago, and wanted to know if Nick and Mark had seen it....they hadn't, so we listen to/watch it....it is very funny! Whilst the shot didn't quite end how Matty might have intended, there are some positives - Nick and Mark review what they see.

Di has written in about Shadow Creek, and other courses in that part of the world....saying there are major issues, and in her view courses will be closing down.

Scott wants to know when our next golf day is....good reminder, we need to get our act together on that. Which does remind us about a competition we're in the early stages of designing....one wolfpacker will get to fly to a certain brand new Australian golf course and play a round with the designer, and Mark Allen.....not too much else to say yet, aside from watch this space.

Dave has a question about wedges, and the lost art of the bump and run. Bill has tried out what Mark recommended in his 'creating space' YouTube video a few days ago.

And we finish with Greg. Bloody Greg. Poor form, and a suspension from the pod may be in order.....

Don't forget our annual survey - you could win $300 to spend on a brand spankers pair of FootJoy's, and $300 to spend at the Golf Clearance Outlet, survey takes 6 or 7 minutes, totally painless....and you can do it here: https://access.itsmystation.com/s3/talk-birdie-to-me-2
